I AGREE HAWKS COACH

This is the way the game should be taught...

Here is my approach to "preventative officiating" in regards to the 3 Seconds violation. Call the 1st one, LOUD AND CLEAR, and be consistent thereafter. The reason I go this way is... "Coaxing them" out of the lane verbally is showing favortism.

Speaking idealistically, if you give 'Red 52' a verbal, "out of the lane", then aren't you obliged to do this, at least once, for all other players?

We can't (and shouldn't) "talk them out of" all violations.

Ah yes, the philosophical question.
