It isn't that the C can't take it under our mechanics. I'm sure any supervisor would say whoever can see it should call it. A whistle with an incorrect call on a play like this is better than no whistle at all so someone needed to pull the trigger.

I felt some comfort at the Big East/AAC camp when pretty much every observer there said they're probably going to have lots of trouble following the "fist up" mandate. They all said they're going to have to break some longtime habits. Of course, having Debbie Williamson as their supervisor now might make the habit-breaking go a little bit faster...
