Thanks Greg!! I absolutely love your content and as an up and coming official your videos help is so many ways that I can't even begin to thank you for all you have done for me, continue to do and will do in the future with your videos. Thank You!!! With that said, I struggle with two areas: 1.) difference in player and team control fouls and how we administer them, especially when in the bonus 2.) correctable error procedure and how to fix issues that may arise in a game. Thanks again for everything you do for me and well for the officiating community as a whole, it surely does not go unnoticed!

[@BetterOfficials]

Text Nick! At warms my heart. Really appreciate the feedback. I will add your suggestions to my growing list of topics! Will hear more in the future.

Real life scenario -- JV Game and I was doing the scorebook. It was a rainy day and one of the team members walking to the game drops his jersey in a puddle. He then goes into the storage room and grabs a dry jersey but doesn't tell anyone. I've got his usual number in the scorebook. He gets into the game later and boom -- administrative "T" After that, I always asked beforehand if anybody had a change of number or something like that.

[@Namath1000]

Question: Kramden is designated as a starter. In warm-ups five minutes before the game, Kramden gets a "T" for dunking the ball. The coach is irate with Kramden -- it's the third time he's done it this season. The coach wants to pull Kramden from the starting line-up. Am I correct to assume that if the coach does that, it would incur another technical since he's already been designated a starter and this doesn't qualify as an exception?

[@bradleyrehwaldt777]

I wonder also if the other team brings in an eligible substitute to shoot the technical freethrows to start the game if Kramdem's coach can bring in subs as well.

[@GIVEMELIBERTYORGIVEMECOIN]

I would say it is a technical foul because it is not an exception.

[@GIVEMELIBERTYORGIVEMECOIN]

@@bradleyrehwaldt777 in my opinion I would say the other team would be allowed to substitute because the "offended" team is substituting at that time.

[@adambomber88]

Thanks, very informative and answered all the questions I’ve had

[@BetterOfficials]

Thanks Adam! More to come in subsequent videos, especially which Technical fouls are on the coach, directly or indirectly.

[@kgerman1]

Really, beginning the video reading the rules book upside down? Epic! Lol

[@BetterOfficials]

It's one thing to know the rules book inside and out... 😂

[@darwinsanada8309]

What's your technique on reading the rules book upside down Greg?(:

[@MaydayAggro]

The designated starter can be replaced by the technical foul shooter, but the shooter cannot then be replaced by the original starter before the start of the game without being charged with an admin T.

[@lukepersall9901]

Maybe a video on frontcourt and backcourt status and rules/scenarios involving the division line? Rule 9-9.

[@BetterOfficials]

Perfect.

[@lstsxx]

Great job, Greg. 4 a future vid, can you cover when coaches are penalized technical fouls when their team is charged with an administrative, team, player, bench? Thanks

[@BetterOfficials]

Yes. It will be a part of this series of 4 videos.

[@johnf9874]

Great content!

[@mae2759]

Just a "why" question about why the rule is the way it is. Why does the team have to designate starters? What is the purpose of that?

[@BetterOfficials]

I have nothing on that. Have to ask a historian about that one.

[@bradleyrehwaldt777]

While I know as a player, we went to the locker room following warm-up right before the game and the coach would give our starters designated match-ups on defensive as our scorer had been informed who was starting on their team.

[@4realjacob637]

Is pre game dunking an administrative technical foul. Is there 3 techs in a row if: Player A1 dunks in pregame Coach A fails to submit scorebook before 10 min Coach A changes starters

[@BetterOfficials]

Pregame dunk not administrative in NFHS. Bench T to player. Indirect to HC.

[@terrymeloy8116]

To start a game with an administrative technical foul. Who would have the possession arrow on the next dead ball?

[@BetterOfficials]

If blue shoots 2 and has the division line throw-in, the arrow is set to White when ball is placed at the disposal of the thrower for the throw-in.

[@insimivalley]

nfhs basketball technical where do players stand while shooting free throws

[@BetterOfficials]

Above 3 pt arc and free throw line extended.

[@jorgepardo9421]

Several minutes into the game, the scorer notifies the official that number 5 started instead of designated starter number 15. The official assesses a technical foul on team A. Why is the official wrong?

[@BetterOfficials]

Yes. It is too late to penalize.

[@jackdavis874]

if the game starts with an administrative technical foul throw in, will the offending team have the possession arrow to start?

[@BetterOfficials]

Yes! The arrow would be set to the offending team (the team that had the admin technical assessed against them) when the *ball is placed at the disposal of the thrower for the throw-in at the division line opposite the table* .

[@Panarchy9]

What happens if a player bloodies his jersey, finds a replacement jersey, and therefore has a new number? Is that an administrative technical? It appears that would be requiring the scorebook to change its number.

[@aalbri5919]

No, he can change the number; because the injury caused the number to have to be changed therefore no Tech and his/her is permitted to be changed.

[@BetterOfficials]

Blood. All things bloody! A great topic. Can I do it for Halloween? hmm...

[@patrickbreiding310]

Closely guarded has me kind confused

[@BetterOfficials]

Hi Patrick! What specifically? Judging the 6' distance?

[@patrickbreiding310]

Yes. And when to end the count.

[@BetterOfficials]

@@patrickbreiding310 OK. Got it!
