Put me in the camp though of doing absolutely everything to avoid the ROP. If they're coming out late enough for you to consider doing this, I can almost guarantee they've done this early in the game. IF you're gonna use the ROP, I'd be using it earlier in the game. I don't want the first time to be in the fourth quarter.
I think you're wrong on your guarantee. It happens when it happens. More times than not, it's going to happen late in the game when the coach is trying to relate a detailed play in a tight situation. That's the conversation that takes 45 seconds that he's trying to squeeze into 30.

That said, we should be hustling them out of their huddles the whole game.
