Scenario:

Coach gets a T.  He is subsequently given the 'seatbelt' rule for the rest of the game.  Later in the game, he/someone gets another T.  The refs said "on the bench". It should be noted the coach was standing up and the T was directed at his vacated chair.

By rule, two T's generally are grounds for an ejection and subsequently you are banned from coaching the next game.

At one time, all T's directed at the bench where assigned to the coach.  I'm now hearing some verbage about "indirect technicals."

What gives here?

Should this guy have been tossed?  Can he coach Tuesday?  Did the refs error in their administration?

...what on Earth is an indirect technical?

Looks like a rules change for this year?

NFHS 10-4-   PENALTY: (Arts. 1, 2, 3, 4) Two free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in. If the head coach is the offender, the foul is charged directly to him/her. The foul is charged to the offender (if not the head coach) and also charged indirectly to the head coach.

NFHS 10-5-1-a - The first technical foul charged directly or indirectly to head coach results in the loss of coaching box privileges and the coach must remain seated for the remainder of the game.

NFHS 10-5-5  NOTE: A single flagrant foul, the second direct technical foul or the third technical (any combination of direct or indirect) charged to the head coach results in disqualification and ejection.


Sounds like that is the correct application. Should not have been tossed. Clear for Tuesday. Indirect is when it is called on a member of the bench other than the coach. He still gets credit and benched, if the refs don't suck, on the first on of any kind. The second one has to be on him to send him packing. #3 gets him out no matter how they got there.

Poyens girls coach nearly got tossed during regionals...I'm surprised he didn't because he was still mouthing after he was benched. The man stomped his foot like a child...it was entertaining lol.
