[QUOTE=ForensicRef]Excellent write up MJT...couple questions.

How do you "confirm with U"? Is there a specific hand signal or verbal signal?

Kind of hard to describe and can be a little different from crew to crew, but most do closed fist above the shoulder and elbow down.

From where you are on the field wouldn't it be easier for the linesman to count the K players and you to count the R players? As I understand it the ref is behind the last R player on kickoffs.

As the R, I count both and will not blow the RFP with out 11 on each side. If R is short, I'll tell one of their deep backs to get a count cuz I have only 10 and if it is K, my BJ should be doing the same.
This is for a 5 man crew. It depends on if he goes straight upfield or towards a sideline first. When the return man gets closer to them, I release him and watch for blocks. I do not have him very long.
