Actually there is no rule that forbids 11 in the huddle (but that is another story all together). As for 20 players during a conference, coaches around here are pretty good about this one and if they have too many, we let them know and they remove players so they only have 11.

True there is no rule that forbids 11 players in the huddle as that is the maximum. I never said that.
2-30-1 A player is one of the 22 team members who is designated to start either half of the game or who subsequently replaces another player. A player continues to be a player until a substitute enters the field and indicates to the player that he is replaced, or when the substitute otherwise becomes a player.
3-7-2 Between downs any number of eligible substitutes may replace players. Replaced players shall leave the field immediately.
3.7.2 SITUATION B: Substitutes A12 and B12 properly enter the game between downs. The replaced player of A remains in the team huddle while the replaced B player leaves the field immediately. RULING: In this situation, A is charged with a 5-yard dead-ball foul for an illegal substitution because the replaced player of A did not leave as required.
