Hey just a quick comment on those people who are so critical of not using the college mechanics. They are usually the ones who either can't get hired onto the college level or were fired because they couldn't handle it. Do your best to call at the level you are on. Rarely do I raise my hand on an oob play in a high school game. I usually just point the way we are going. And for those who say, "oh my!" get real! The game is changing get on the band wagon or get off. Because it will soon be changed in high school.

I agree with JRut and all the others who have stated that you must use the approved mechanics at the level you're working. BTW - not stopping the clock is NOT AN APPROVED mechanic in the CCA manual. According to the CCA manual, officials are still to stop the clock, then point. I know that most supervisors don't have a problem with their officials just pointing, but even if you're working college ball, you should make sure that is an approved mechanic in your conference(s).
