Absolutely! Always ask questions when unsure, ask questions when there is any doubt. We do it all the time, verbally and with signals. We use signals for the down and players on the field. Communication between a crew is crucial. You have to stick together and ask questions. It doesn't hurt at all to say "Coach let me make sure," then go ask. Good point Fred, this could have easily been prevented had it happened, but still what if?

No it didn't, I just thought about it one day and was wondering what everyone would do, it is a really sticky situation and it is also very unlikely it would happen.
