State Games Question on Replay
« on: December 18, 2015, 12:23:02 PM »
In the end last year there was a lot of discussion regarding the use of instant reply at the stadium and the system available. Any knowledgeable about why that wasn't implemented this year?  I'm not in favor of it but just curious.

I work instant replay as a technician for CUSA.  I don't think we have everything in place for instant replay nor are our officials ready for it.  This is on top of the fact that it really would be ridiculous at the high school level.

There was supposed to be some sort of survey of coaches around the state done through a coordinated effort of UIL and THSCA to assess what their feelings were.  Also a group of coaches and others on UIL ZRules Committee working to develop a plan for how to proceed should the decision be made at some point to go that way.  I can tell you much as I hate IR and what I think it has done to the game and to the perceptions of all of us, now that it is in place I would have loved to have had it available last night and let them take a look at the targeting in the EZ on PAT.

i went to a couple games thursday. both games ran a 5 man crew. was not impressed with either crew.

the first step would be having 7 man crews before trying to implement replay for championship games.

Mike, if you've seen a replay, would you have stayed with the target?

There is one huge problem with going to IR for these games.  The games are not broadcast in full HD, but in SD.  I've been in the booth with both, and I can assure you, SD leaves you not making many decisions since you just don't have the detail.

Also, why on earth would coaches be writing the replay rules.
