any doc guys have any pointers on how to handle adverse weather?
@CoachFox-ScreamingEagles feel free to chime in here.

My advice for rainy games? If you find yourself pinned near your own end zone, with the clock about to expire, TAKE THE SAFETY!! Do NOT hand if off to your back up running back. The events that can unfold after a loss like have the potential to ruin LIVES, CAREERS, and ENTIRE TOWNS!!

Do they cause certain boosters to run the HC out of town?

Do we wear all white t shirts when it rains? Do people want to see the nips?

can't believe those guys had someone filming that act.
Documentary crews follow you almost EVERYWHERE!! Once you sign that contract, you dont have much ground to stand on. But part of filming a good doc, you CANNOT interfere with things. Much like the razing of Coach Nickerson's house or Stef walking to school in the rain. Gotta stay impartial.

When filming you, they better have a LOT of ground to stand on!!!
 
Practice for rain with wet balls. Then if it DOES NOT rain, spray down the field with hoses for a while before the game starts. John Madden tactic. Works.

Always subject to change but the latest I am seeing from the NWS is the vast majority of the strong/severe T-Storms will be well south of MO. A general rain is much more likely especially in the Northern half of the state but it could (my God do we need it) be heavy at times. Still 2+ days out, though.

No rain, no wind ,would be just fine by me... Is that really too much to ask? :)

Lathrop HS special at that old goat ranch they used to play on.
 
Recommendations from the MSHSAA office:
1. Wear your rubbers, don't want to risk trench foot
2. Don't put the endzone camera operator up on the scissor lift!
3. No passes accepted! "Return unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's"
 
We always put Vaseline on the bottom of our cleats when we played mud games. Mud wouldn't stick. Now it seems most games are on the Field Turf where the fields are in great condition even during bad weather.

I am sure J Kane can GIF us some good ones for #1.
