No Timeouts - end of the game

[Tio]

I think the crew needs to be aware of the timeout situation. I always keep track of when a team burns both it's 30 sec. timeouts so you immediately send the teams into a full rather than take the time to ask the coach (who usually is worried about his team once you grant the timeout). An aside, in my first 4 year college game, the coach did this and I sat there waiting and got no indication before granting a full timeout. This of course burned the first media timeout which pissed the coach off and was not a good start for me this night! Just something to think about moving forward......

By rule in the NCAA,

Rule 2, Section Art. 15. Notify a team and its head coach when a team takes its final
allowable charged timeout

Meaning, the crew should know when a team takes a timeout and the head coach should be aware his/her team is out of timeouts. We has a crew need to be 100% sure that a team is asking for a timeout.... many teams have plays that sound similar (especially in a packed gym). If this is the case a conversation should come up during a dead ball amongst the crew....... in summary we should never be surprised by something that happens in the game.
