I think there is a big fuss about a small change. Someone mentioned before about how little this will matter for free throws. It is not a big deal. Put the ball in play and continue.
The signal we use is also a small issue. Communication will be the key. Many tables in a high school game don't pay attention to whatever we do anyway. The use of our voices is lacking from what I've seen and not heard recently. We can still talk on the court can't we?
By the way, I have never used the team control signal in a college game and I've never had an observer say anything about it to anyone on any crew I've worked with. I have called fouls in these situations. I just try to make it perfectly clear what I have when I call the foul. YMMV
