There are situations where a coach will WANT to take a TO to get his player off the field. If the coach takes the TO rather than an officials TO, then the player can come back after the TO. If the TO is an OFFICIAL's TIMEOUT, the player cannot return until the next play is run (even if the team takes a Timeout after the officials timeout). If this is wrong, please correct me. But I believe the case book has several examples of this.
