There were USL's (Two) given to the HC, but not a third. And we did tell the AD that the score stood as posted on the scoreboard.
Great start to the season what?

So what was the call that started all this?

Slow whistle on stopped progress, which "allowed" a fumble. It's in the story.

So ... they started the play clock with the team not yet on the field? If so, why didn't the offense run a play? Should have hit them with delay BEFORE starting the playclock when they refused to come out.

why was the coach ejected for delay penalties? Please provide Rulebook reference

Read the thread. The fouls were not delay of game.

I guess we were "pathetic". And this guy MUST know what he's talking about... he once heard that there is a rulebook for sports games.

Too bad these parents don't know what REALLY went on instead of what was said after to try and justify.

Last year, two coaches were forced to resign after playing ineligible players.

This year, the head coach throws a tantrum and refuses to play the game.

Wow. That's a quality football program.

Amen!

The biggest losers are the kids who didn't get to finish the game and have lousy examples set by the coach.

The same coach would throw a fit if there was an inadvertent whistle.

Our whistles are frequently late. Some plays "end" without a whistle, at least until we find the football.

The coach is a whiner who has found a scapegoat. End of story.

One of my first ejections early in my career was a PA who was upset over a slow whistle.

Run up the gut, no whistle as the pile is moving forward. All of a sudden on the PA comes, "Blow the #&#$&$ whistle, dammit!!! You're gonna get my kid hurt you @$$holes..." Ejected the announcer in my 3rd or 4th game ever.

Any relation to the M Crowder who is the AD for the other team on this game?
That would be pushing the co0-incidence level a bit!
