Since the table personnel doesn't know why the HC is requesting the time-out through them, they would have to assume it is being done under 2-10 and follow that procedure--meaning to signal the officials. The HC doesn't have to lie/cheat at all. He just doesn't get specific.

So you would have no problem with coaches doing this on a regular basis? Or if you happen to catch them out the box near the table they could say they were requesting a time-out?
