2 good T's. On the first, I agree that whomever the official was that was nearest the coach should have taken care of business himself. As far as the second, the guy was on the radar for his actions early on, he must have said too much. The new acting head coach can come out and attend to his player. The second would have been a more solid T if the same official didn't have to clean up after his partner that didn't assess the T when he should have.

As far as the foul tip mechanic discussion. I'm not a fan. I had a partner use it on a play in double coverage areas. He's signalling "foul tip" or a clean block, I'm coming in as C with a foul from the back side. We were in the soup because of his extra communication. If there isn't a whistle, that means there isn't a foul. That should be communication enough. In my opinion the foul tip mechanic can potentially get you in more trouble than it will get you out of.
