My question is this. I USED to spread my arms to indicate there was no closely guarded count, because I was told not to do that by a varsity official. ANOTHER varsity official told me TO do it, and that it's helpful in those "grey areas," of whether or not its within 6-feet.

You might want to ask your state association (if you have one)
what you are expected to do. We are required to do it by the state board of the association of the state I am in (which isn't Ohio).
At the VA state clinic, we were told specifically not to do this. The reason given is if they are closely guarded, you should have a count. No count = not closely guarded.
