I agree whole-heartedly! All we need is for some coach to question whether it was 4.9 or 5.0 seconds! We have enough problems on the fields with the clocks when the 25-second operator starts the clock 5 seconds late!

KS and Forksref....I with you guys! Why make a big deal out of if? Coaches will be all over it. When you start that five hand chop thing. One coach will be watching and living and dying on it...

I think just raising the hand is more then enough of a warning! How many delay of games are we all calling out there?
