Coach can call a to rule

[M&M Guy]

I agree with Redhouse - the coaches need to be reminded they can REQUEST a timeout, but only a referee can GRANT it. It's a fine line, but I think more coaches are starting to understand it. Some coaches may just be frustrated when there's a turnover as they are asking for the TO, and they may direct that frustration towards you, but it's not your fault if you can't hear the request over the screaming throng. I like the idea of the coach being able to request the TO. Sometimes it's just keeping that line of communication open.
