What ????? Are you saying you do not know what the spirit and intent of the numbering rule and exception are or that you just choose not to believe what others who have researched it are telling you that it is. The spirit and intent of this rule is clear and is documented as I have shown before.

But I digress...all you guys need to do in Fed is mimic the NCAA rule on this. While not all NCAA rules are written better than Fed rules, on this one it is. Team A (or K as you call it) needs to have the right to put cover guys in and we do not want to go through some convoluted jersey changing process to let them do that. Heck even the NCAA rule would let this A11 BS go on on one down and I am not arguing to remove that.
