In other words, preventative officiating.

And it was accepted at a level with ex-MLB guys on the field.

If it has its place there, even in limited circumstance, then it must have its place at the high school or college level as well.

This is no different than a coach coming to you to report a change. Said change includes re-inserting a prior substitute (already in and out) back into the lineup.

As the UIC, you know the player is ineligible and should inform the coach as much..........

No. You, as the arbitor of the game, should not allow players to knowingly enter the game when they are inappropriate. That is not coaching. It is informing the coach that his actions are illegal, AFTER he has told you of his intent. You are merely calling what you see.
