Substitution

Post by GoCats18 » Fri Dec 06, 2019 12:00 am

Watching the mens game tonight against SDSU, my son noticed that every time a player would substitute in, they would hand something to the player that was coming out. That player would then hand it to someone behind the bench. Anyone know what it was they were passing around? Great win against SDSU.


Punters are people too!!

Wondering the same thing. Looks like a rolled up towel.

Typically, teams that do that will use a rolled up towel. That way, when a player goes in and hands the towel to who is coming out, there is no confusion on who is coming out of the game.

Its a discipline technique helps the incoming player get ready.


While registering my vehicles the assessor stated "I have had both Cat and Griz students and alums work for me and the Griz end up working under the direction of the Cats."

It also makes the two acknowledge each other. This means there is a high chance they'll talk and share info such as who the outgoing player was guarding.
