Coaches do get confused at times too. Granted, this was a JV game last week but when A was intercepted in the endzone HC for A started yelling that B couldn't return that ball out of the endzone and it was a touchback. I quickly informed him that rule only applied to kicked balls and that B could return this ball. None of the other coaches were saying a thing, guess they knew HC was wrong. After the game he appologized.
This last week in our varsity game QB for A started yelling for us to whistle it dead during the play while his runner was still gaining yards. I don't know if he forgot who he handed the ball to as the FB was tackled quickly but the TB's forward progress was not yet stopped. I asked him if he would like me to blow my whistle after his TB broke away and was running down the field and he said "No" so I told him that his player was in no danger of being hurt. I still don't know what was going through his mind that he just started yelling "Blow the whistle!"
