Ok, setting the USC aside. For the other stuff I make it simple and tell the captains what penalties we have with this kind of description....
"OK, captain we have pass interference and roughing the passer. If it's OK with you we'll decline the interference because that's enforced from the previous spot and accept the roughing and we'll enforce from the end of the run. I'm sure you want the ball at the 25 instead of the 40" (assuming going in of course). Of course the captain agrees and says yeah, we'll take that.
I might not be exactly that wordy but the key point is "if it's OK with you this is what we're going to do" kind of thing. I even tell the coaches in my Pre Game that we'll extend the courtesy to both teams and give common sense penalty options (meaning, the no-brainer stuff that the offended coach would want).
I tell the coach on choices that would give 2nd and 15 vs. 3rd and 10 that's solely the captain's decision to make.
