Surprisingly coaches understand even if they don't like it. When I WH I'm terrible at remembering the numbers -- too much other stuff going on and too little processing power I guess. If they're not doing something like holding the spot 50 yards downfield I do ask my side guys to both come in a ways and grab the number and just tell the coach when I invariably forget. If there is no number I will do as somebody else suggested and at least try to identify the player to the bench by position or something so the coach has somewhere to start.
