The "BREAKING THE HUDDLE WITH 12" was to try and keep the situational substitution under control. Thus not allowing the offense to take advantage by confusing the defense. As the white hat in my crew i have to use some common sense as to why the sub came in late and is it the intent of the offense to take advantage of the rule.
The KEY to me as that sub comes in is:
A. Yelling out who he is coming in for
B. The replaced player does not hesitate and starts to the sideline.
You must allow the offense to complete their substitution in a timely manner without undo delay.
