Hauck- AFCA President

What about the kids who are healed by miracles? We can’t have officials ruling on what is and isn’t a miracle. “Hey, Ted, I have that as a routine non-miracle. Roll clock. Kid is done for the drive. See you at bowling on Tuesday. Tell Phyllis and the kids I say hello.”

No, sir! There are exceptions/exemptions/concessions afforded the religious universities. BYU and Notre Dame would be stopping game clock with impunity because Ted isn’t going to play God.

This is partially why I’ve always been an advocate of snakes at games. No snakes, no snake handlers, no snake healers.

The sky is always falling for some people, tough way to go though life.

If you're talking about my comment, I never said the sky was falling. I said it's something else to distract him from his primary responsibilities.

Congrats Coach! Great honor.

I agree--if a kid says I twisted my ankle, I hurt my knee, my ribs hurt, how does an official on the field during the game that is in all likelihood a layman, not an EMT, paramedic, PA MD or.DO conclude, " You're faking it ! " and penalize his team ?

All officiating crews will have an otherwise incompetent female ref that will be able to tap into her “woman’s intuition” to make the call.

General comment about a half dozen or so on this board.
