Good point. Sometimes the ball will shoot out and I won't pick it up while officiating a competitive matchup down low.

The problem with giving that one to the trail ALL the time is the little roller heading for the sideline that may (or may not) be out when brought back in by a player. The T has no angle on the line -- is it out? -- is it in? -- and not having the L ever look at that one, I think, is not smart.

All that said, the one I miss the most (knowing who caused the out of bounds violation) is when I'm working 3-person and the ball shoots out quickly on the baseline when I'm looking elsewhere -- usually it's a ball that's tipped (or not tipped) way outside my primary that the T/C can help on.
