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.

We have local evaluators who show up unannounced, even in lower games. A couple of weeks ago one showed up at a B-8 game 70 miles from town. Local evaluations definitely have an impact on ratings, thus on assignments.
Additionally, state evaluators show up from time to time. Their reviews can effect ratings and chances of getting state play-off games.

Fair enough. And when in Rome, I am very capable of doing as the Romans do. I know and use the proper signals and mechanics myself, but wouldn't be bothered if a wing made a catch signal.
I'm just trying to provide some balance -- it seems in every sport there is more emphasis put on which signals to use, which uniforms to wear, and whose a$$ to kiss rather than using sound judgement and good officiating practices.
