If you don't change it at least you checked. Never say never. When I'm Lead on a three person crew and the ball goes out of bounds on the weak side about 90% of the time I'm looking to the Center for help every one knows I didn't see it because I'm off ball. And I don't like secret signals. Go strong and I'll mirrror my partner. Rarely have to go to the arrow.

I agree - if you don't know what happened, you go to your partner.

My post was regarding a situation when it's your call and you're pretty sure you're right. In those situations, go strong with your call and rely on your partner to come to you if he has information.

OOB calls are harder than many give credit for. There's a lot of action to watch, and all of us have blown that call. But, you can't go to your partner every time you're less than 100% sure. If you're completely unsure, then yes, but if you have information that makes you fairly certain, and your partner likely doesn't have any more information than you, go strong with your call.
