Had a game at end of regular season and this was happening i could easily hear it on the field but never heard the coach say anything about and actually players on the bench had some noise or chant they were saying prior to or at the snap. In my opinion the coaches need to say something before we ever get involved.
Exactly. I used to take this on, but got tired of it. Funny. When I stopped, still haven’t heard a complaint from a team. With a complaint, I’d have done something about it. No complaint - not gettin’ involved. I think you’ll find this approach somewhat pervasive.
If the UIL wants it stopped, so easy. Let the teams send video with audio to the UIL. Suspend the bands that violate the rule. That will stop it quickly. Stop piling this kind of stuff on game officials. Let us stick to holding, PI, formations, targeting - real football stuff. Let the UIL take on bands and uniforms.
