Probably one of the better freshman coaches in the area. He actually told me between games that he needs to get off the caffeine. If a coach is asking for a count, and she's not close enough, I'll just shake my head. Same thing I do when they ask me to call a phantom travel. He'll get the point.
That's exactly what I do - shake my head. I do that whenever a coach complains about a no-call when I had nothing. I don't think we need to be so concerned with appeasing a coach that we use mechanics that aren't in the book.
