Hash_Marks Posted October 28, 2024 Share Posted October 28, 2024 Everyone at the Laurel vs Vancleave game Friday found out that MHSAA officials will call a delay of game penalty for faking injuries. This occurred with Laurel down 41-33 and no timeouts under a minute left in the game ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s1nglewing Posted October 28, 2024 Share Posted October 28, 2024 So was this a coaching call or just a spontaneous group flop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely occurred all at once. My first thought is it would've worked to the intended outcome better had it only been one player.

dawgbear Posted October 30, 2024 Share Posted October 30, 2024 I am happy someone finally did something about that. I would hang up the whistle before I coached like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree 100% thats a bad look right there and the penalty was justified. But what happens if i player does go down, the official thinks he faking it, throws a flag for delay of game and it turns out to be a legitimate injury?

Agreed Vott that it does present a predicament. Definitely could be a judgment call, however there are a lot of judgement calls so I treat this no differently. If you think it's legit then don't throw flag. If you think it's suspect then throw it and live with it. Only other option would be mak a flat out rule 10 second runoff of something if game is stopped for injury and clock restarts immediately when ball is declared ready for play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Bert Posted October 30, 2024 Share Posted October 30, 2024 Kind of hard when half of 11 players have knee or other leg injury on the same play. That's real smart when coach yells out or sends in play to fake injury. If ref heard coach say it then throw the flag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wareaglefan1us Posted October 31, 2024 Share Posted October 31, 2024 I don’t think this should be a delay of game penalty. I believe it should be bumped up to unsportsmanlike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ever is the largest penalty i am for it. Move them Laurel offense back to their own 1 with a minute left. If their opponent is on the 40 move it forward 20-30 yards.

Former Coach Posted November 1, 2024 Share Posted November 1, 2024 In most instances it's not going to easy to identify whether it is legit or not. Easy solution is that any player that time is stopped for an injury is not allowed to re-enter until the next possession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if it happened again like Laurel did it with over half the team going down on one play? If you’re throwing a flag for delay it should be bumped to unsportsmanlike IMO. If it’s obvious enough to throw a flag make it a big enough penalty to struggle to overcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
