REPLY: Coincidentally enough, I've also been doing this for 27 years, and I couldn't disagree more with your partner. If the slot's jumping the snap count simulated action at the snap, it's a false start. You were correct to shut the play down. It doesn't matter whether he's a slot, a wide receiver, a set back, or even the QB. If he simulates action at the snap--for any reason--he's fouled. No opportunities to reset. That whole thing about "he can reset" went out with stirrup socks years ago.

nvfoa15 gave you the perfect litmus test in his post.

And it's the same for NF and NCAA as Jason posted above.
