Did you ever point out, for the benefit of newer officials, what the proper scenarios would be for adjudicating the BC rule per the case play cited by OKREF?

If I were just to follow your posts on the subject, I would not learn anything about the practical applications of the BC rule. At least with Jeff, I would know throw-in situations are not covered by that case play.

I don't even know what this is supposed to mean. Did you do any of these things either?

Yeah, I did, several times. In fact, I think I was the first one to answer Geof to point out where his disconnect was and he thanked me. I have responded a couple times to OKREF with example plays.

Have you read other responses, or just Jeff's?

Yep.
