No comment whether good or bad, just my observation.

I work with the same crews every week and we are not allowed to use the signal. That is what the powers that be say that is what we do. And I work basketball as well (you already know this of course) and there are signals that the higher levels do that you cannot do at the HS level. That is just the way it is with this.

If you do use the signals, who is there to police you? Take away assignments?

Not allowed means that there are repercussions for using the signal. I've not noticed that in IL, but I have no desire to move up the ladder there, just work the occasional assignment. I'm just not that anal about it -- I'm more concerned with calling a good game.

BTW, Jeff, Part I hoops is online as of today.
