But if, as frequently happens, coaches are not paying attention or try to wait until the last possible second before they say or signal time out and the 5 count has finished then I call the violation. Not only do I feel that this is the ONLY way to officiate the game, but as a former coach I do not understand why my team has to suffer because the other guy did not get hit time out off in time. If his team violates then it should be my ball. Period.
