I start NCAA ball next year - so I dont know what they are teaching .. but in ASA I give time for reasonable things.. like getting set. I've never been instructed not to. Usually they dont need it, but if I need to control the pace or help control the pace, I do. And if they ask for time because the pitcher is taking to long with the sign, I grant that as well.
they should ask for time verbally and keep both hands on their bat - that would be the proper way to ask for time and the smartest.
