If you get a coach, however, who's not so smart, all bets are off and he'll get no sympathy from me as I write my report later.

You will get into more trouble granting the BI, which we can't under the current rules. However, the trouble will come from your assignor. And let me make myself clear. I would NOT count the basket for any reason because I can't under the current rules. I'm arguing for an expansion of the BI definition to allow me to count the basket.
