Put the hand down it is an obsolete mechanic that serves no purpose.

Keep your feet together because you don't want to put one foot forward only to have the U take the other wing and the coach question why his blade of grass was better than yours.

Last thing, if you are near the line to gain yell it out to the R to let himknow if he needs to look or if it is a first down.
