Here's a situation I had this weekend:
WR comes out and lines up. There was also a Tight End on the play. I recognized the formation from previously in the game, and was pretty sure the WR was supposed to be Off the line. I said to him, "If you're off the line, take another step back." He never moved. TE went out for a pass. I threw the flag for ineligible downfield. WR got reamed by the coaching staff. Coach that was right beside me said to me, "You didn't even have to talk to him about that. Just throw the flag next time." He didn't have a problem with me flagging it at all. I did explain to him that it's not my goal to throw the flag everytime, I'd rather help the kid get lined up right.
