The rules do not explicitly offer a choice, but it doesnt prohibit it either...but they can run the baseline. I have never seen anything where it says we are supposed to be in one place or another to bring the ball inbounds.

I would not ever wait on a coach, however if a coach made a request that appears to be something I can accomodate him, I'll probably do it. I can be hardnosed if I want to be.

My point is that we as officials should not be so inflexible, or have to prove that we are right/the coaches are idiots...

If a coach was asking me to move while reffing a three-man game, I think'd I talk with him, not ridicule him.

I just think we have better things to do than prove we are right and then win the argument with the T
Sounds like presence to me.
