Known fact not a secret -
Is it time to go to 6 man mechanics?
Huge Football Fan replied to Bobref's question in Officiating Forum
I agree with Ohio and would only want 6 man with the center judge. 2 deep wings with no one in the middle is for a better word “stupid”. With all that said its absolutely ridiculous we don’t goto 7 or even 8 man mechanics after week 2 of the tournament and work that way to the state finals. -
Targeting/ Illegal Contact to the Head on Kickoff
Huge Football Fan replied to trojan474's question in Officiating Forum
Also another reason to give the clock operators/announcers a radio and you can tell them what you have in an unusual play so they can announce what is going on -
I have no knowledge of it but it sounds suspicious to me. Booked and confirmed? If someone were to double book they wouldn’t confirm to a school they were coming and then not show up. If there were double booked then they had the tell them before hand or how would they release that they were double booked? It doesn’t add up. Either way hopefully they get the game In tomorrow

Mercy Rule???
Huge Football Fan replied to Fortune Teller's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
The coaches can still agree to end or shorten any period, with or without a mercy rule. The mercy rule provision is just to allow the state to provide a "forced" shortening even without coach consent. from bob’s Facebook post. This is how I see it just like the rest of the world. If the coaches agree to run the clock in the first half of a 63-0 game, run the clock if they both want to. In the second half they don’t have a choice. That’s what the rule says why does meridian or where they are want to make it more difficult then what it is. No where does it say you can’t run the clock in the first half if they agree. Totally wrong interpretation -
Mercy Rule???
Huge Football Fan replied to Fortune Teller's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Very clear to who? And with the way it’s written use your lawyer powers I read that coaches can’t over ride the implementation of the rule in the second half but I don’t see where that means they can’t use it in the first. How about this. ITS THE COACHE’S RULE! And if it’s 41-0 int he first and the coach says get me outta here you should be able to and I don’t see where you can’t. Coaches not being able to override the implementation of the rule to me means they can’t say no. I don’t see where it says they can’t say yes -

I read it as they can’t override it being implemented. It’s absolutely stupid if it’s 41-0 in the 1st q and the losing coach asks for a running clock and we don’t give it to them. Another nonsense application of a rule that shouldn’t be that difficult -
On your play I think it’s the wing on the right side that should see it. B could help depending on what category of dpi you have
-
In this case it’s a no brainer. Anyone who has officiated that would be reading this has called dpi. How many people have called the defense for blocking a wr who is no longer a potential blocker? I bet almost 0. He asked a specific question about a specific route but wouldn’t say if the ball was in the air or not. I know it’s easier to call dpi on this play when the ball is coming then to call the defense for a foul while the qb still has the ball and is the question that I find interesting as to who would see it but it wouldn’t be dpi
-
As in ibb the block in the back signal. The point is his original question needs to be clarified. What he is asking about dpi or an illegal block? Dpi is way easier to call and isn’t gonna be such a guess. The illegal block is much tougher to see to the whole thing not just 1 or 2 guys falling
-
What does that even mean? You asked about DPI. DPI on this play vs an illegal block (defense blocking a player that can no longer be a potential blocker) is 2 totally different senerios. The dpi is easier to call in this situation so to me the question is who would see the illegal block
-
Is the ball in the air?
-
Without naming names explain the play situation
-
I think c) needs to be added in as it’s a much stranger situation then b. k Player is tackled at the 21 instead of the 5
-
He can block the wr as long as the wr is a potential blocker to him and the ball is not in the air

I think is numbers were just made up I think it’s more like 1/10,000 csn anyone come up with a game where a team was down 35 in the second half and won? I still have yet to hear of a game like that -
Mercy Rule? No thanks
Huge Football Fan replied to BTF's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Again sheep mentality! Typical blah blah. 49-0 at the half the second half is terrible. The winning team doesn’t want to do anything with the back ups cuz they want the clock to run. I Believe this opens up the second/third team to play football. If your throw a incomplete pass on third down who cares. This is way better in the long run. Closed minded people will complain just to complain without really looking at the benefits. Which is typical -

Do we have record of a game where someone was down 35 in the second half and won? -
Mercy Rule? No thanks
Huge Football Fan replied to BTF's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I understand sheep mentality and “get better is the typical response “. What’s the point of 50-0 at the half and the winning team running full back dive up the middle 3 times and punt while the losing team throws 3 incompletions and punts. Who is getting better at that point. With the running clock you can bring in the jv run/throw the ball like normal of its incomplete clock keeps running and you can have a better game for the back ups -

Huge Football Fan replied to BTF's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I’m glad I have the right to disagree. I think the coaches did a great job of coming up with something. Seems to be working out very well so far. With the avg margin of victory getting more and more out of hand something needed to be changed. Week 1 had the lowest avg margin of victory since 9/9/2011 21.9. -

I know you can play all the special teams q. My point was the kid played every q of the freshman game every q of the jv game and every q of the varsity q(on special teams) so so last night if you had played one of these kids that you needed to okaybwhat would of happened? Can you play a high school game with 13 as center? -
Mercy Rule? No thanks
Huge Football Fan replied to BTF's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I’ve seen teams use the same kid for all freshman game (starter played all 4 quarters) jv game (starter played all 4 quarters) and on special teams on varsity. What’s the punishment? You forfeit the jv and freshman games? Who cares?
