Lightbulb Experimental rule

With your presence, there ain't gonna be anyone to question you either way.

We don't have that local procedure U.P. here, but I remember it being discussed.... somewhere. Actually, I think it may be a three-man mechanic where the Center is gone and the Trail may let 'em know. Man it's been a long time since I worked three. Tomorrow night, ...finally!

I don't mind telling the coach, "That's Five, Coach." And I welcome the opportunity to offer an indirect "T".
I also think that with the experimental rule that Illinois uses by having the coaches have to bring in the subs for a disqualified player "immediately." You do not have the 30 second "timeout" that a coach takes so everything moves faster. The most popular way that officials would handle that would be to tell the coach themselves who fouled out then go opposite the table. The official coming to fill in the space "speeds" up the process and we move on with the game. Worked well all season for me.

Peace
