3. A visible manufacturer’s logo/trademark/reference is NOT permitted on
the jersey. NOTE: A “locker-tag” near the bottom of a jersey designed to
be tucked in, is not interpreted as visible.

This is incorrect. The players are not supposed to be in the game at all if their shirts are not tucked in ALL THE WAY AROUND. If they are waiting at the table to check in, they are or suposed to not be allowed in the game. The problem is with the coach first of all not making them do it, and 2nd the officials are not wanting to pick this battle to fight, but when they don't they are not enforcing the rules. Because it is supposed to be tucked at all times, yes there are times when playing hard it comes out and that is fine, but during a dead ball or free throw, they are asked to tuck it back or that is how it should be. It is a rule and is only enforced by a few, if everyone would get on the same page with the rules, this would be a dead issue! I know coaches and officials do not like playing fashion police, but there are rules and they should have to abide by them.

I think we are all on the same page in our desire to have the jersey tucked in. But based on what Magnum PI found, I don't believe the rule dictates the same thing that you are saying. If that was the case, then the refs would not stop at just the front of the Jersey being tucked in as enough.

I'll check into this with a 10th Region ref that I know and find out what the refs are supposed to do in thissituation.
