Only time I'll look for the hand is if I know the ball is going OOB and I can't hear the whistle.

But is the upstretched hand any less visible to you than one pointing forward or backward.

Rich,
I already wrote why I think there is a difference:

My experience is that they tend to put their hand straight up as they sound the whistle. That makes a small difference to a timer going off the visual signal of the official.

Why then has it not been used in college games for years? Why is it when I go to college camps I hear clinicians correct people for using the mechanic?
Why do we need to be different in something so basic? Why should I worry about how to call a ball out of bounds Monday vs. Tuesday?
