We had this discussion about the "Where's the tee?" play in pregame last week and I seem to recall our HL finding a Redding's ruling that says to shut it down.

So, since you don't know it's a play until the snap, you blow it dead as soon as they snap the ball and hit 'em w/ 15.

Did anyone else notice where the wingman was on the field? On video, when the man goes in motion he is backing up towards his sideline around the numbers. Inside the numbers puts him at least 9 yards on the field of play. He was backpedaling because of motion at the snap and then was never on his sideline for the long pass down the line. I always officiate from the sideline on Friday nights and work in on close yardage/goal line. Are any of you using the mechanics he used? If so, how far do you go onto the field before the snap? What's the benefit?
