I have seen this type of play several times. Inexperienced officials will not know what to do or call here. I try to mention this in my pregames but don't always remember too. Remember to watch the non-jumpers for this type of play.
In your pregames you tell your partners to call a violation for something that is legal?

Inexperienced officials will still know that this isn't a violation. Rec League officials and trolls who have never owned a rule book in their lives will think(wrongfully) that it is a violation.

Interesting concept, Old School. Call violations on legal plays. I wonder if that'll catch on.
