I was just watching part of UCONN vs. Louisville from last year on ESPN Classic. They showed a wing gesturing with both arms waving a receiver back because he was in the neutral zone. I was very surprised to see such a visible signal, especially at that level.
I will sometimes give a little gesture with one hand to move a guy back if a receiver looks at me to see if he is on.
Nothing wrong with preventive officiating, but I've always wondered why receivers aren't taught how to line up on their own.
