Here's a question for you all.

How do you know when F1 is taking signs?
How do you know that the "signs F1 is taking off the rubber are the real signs?
How do you know that when F1 steps on the rubber another sign or set of signs is not being given?

The answer is you don't know. And that is the answer that I give to the complaining coach!

As long as F1 does not step on the rubber and into to a quick pitch, he is not violating anything. OBR and NCAA is a "don't do that". FED says balk but as was previously stated, the pitching restrictions don't start until F1 intentionally contacts the rubber so there cannot be a balk.

Most important, go back and read my first 5 lines of this post!
