I disagree. Where's the Ball, and Get the tee are not the same situation. This is EXACTLY why I feel you should NEVER do anything differently in an obvious Knee situation.
Is it a foul if the offense comes to the line and says, "We're throwing a pass to the right flanker", and then runs left? Of course not --- so why is this different?
Do NOT tell the defense to lay off. If you do, you deprive them of a possible recovery on a muffed snap. At most, tell OL, "Protect yourselves", and tell Def, "IF they take a knee, I don't want to see anything unsportsmanlike or unnecessary." We obviously don't want people hurt on a true Knee play - but it is not within our perview to limit the options of the offense or the abilities of the defense.
