On violations where there is a separate hand signal, I whistle, say the violation, then point and say the color of the team getting the ball. When there's no hand signal (OOB), I just say the color. If I think there would be a question, I might point to the line or say "stepped on the line," but usually not.

The key thing is to do what you need to do to sell THAT call, but don't get into a habit of what I call "giving too much info." A lot of times what happens may be clearer to others than it is to you (even though you called it) because you are closer.
