    HHail to the Victors

    Don, Do you know/have the contact info for the fella who was getting together all the six-man state final game films for the library at McMurry? I misplaced the info when moving last year and have the '10 and '11 game DVDs for it.

    Breaking the Huddle with Seven

    Preventative officiating is the best route, but this requires complete concentration and focus on the game at all times. Probably a dozen times over the past two seasons this could have happened in one of my games, but I yell out to the huddle "Who's out, who's out" before we get to the 3...

    How would this action be interpreted by officials in TX?

    On the 20? I am flagging that every time. If you dont have the common sense to wait until you score to celebrate with your teammates? I think back many years ago when I was a young official and this exact thing happened in a game. The runner was horse collar tackled in the end zone, injured...

    Lookin' for advice on game filming ...

    When I shoot games: 1. Start with a shot of the scoreboard. 2. Get the coin toss. 3. Kickoff and 2nd half kickoff are important. Some people miss them 'cause they are goofing around. 4. Start as the offense gets to the line. Stop 2-3-4 seconds after the play is over. Formations and shifts...

    Facemask/Illegal Hands to the Face

    A stiff arm by the runner is just that: a stiff arm. If they were to wind up and strike a blow to the helmet or face mask of the defender, then you have the option of a personal foul for the blow to the head. I have called that just once in 17 years, but it was so obvious there was no...
