Well, it's only better communication if it doesn't confuse the issue. The problem is that coaches, players, and others get the wrong idea about what's acceptable and what's not during a throw-in based on using the traveling violation.
I know it's not our job to teach them that, but the NFHS and the NCAA have prescribed a mechanic for a reason - and the traveling mechanic isn't the one they have chosen.
I don't really care - it's a rarely seen violation and for the most part the message gets across either way. I just dislike using the traveling signal because it leads others to believe you must have a pivot foot during a throw-in.
