Which Side of the Lane Line?

And as a clinician with my state, this is never discussed because I doubt anyone gets this request.

I've gotten it twice in the last year and a half. BNR got it twice at the college level. We're somebodies, I'd think. I may be not as much of a somebody as he is, however.

Frankly, I respect the coach that does this. He understands the rule and asks a reasonable question/request from the crew. I'd accept the request and notify the other bench. Big whoop.
