PROS - Streching out arm's is proactive. A signal to player, crowd and coach your on the play but distance scope not met...yet.

CONS - Stretched arms is not a NFHS mechanic and gets off balance with partner.

Shaking the head "no" concerns me. Isn't that reacting to the coach?



Absolutely it's reacting to the coach. I only do that when he is thinking a call should have been made and the play has not stopped so I have to focus on the game and can't look at him to either say "I hear you" or explain why I thought it was a no-call. It's a way of letting the coach know I heard what he said but did not consider it a violation/foul.
