Rookie Kicks a Time Out Call

[DesMoines]

Last week I had a coach lecture me because, "You should have known I was going to want a time out."

They were visitors and down by at least five. We were administering FTs for a "coaches strategy foul" at the other end. I'm T. His team grabbed the made second FT and threw it in quick. By the time I actually heard him, checked, and granted the TO, the ball was in bounds.

"Now my kids can't run the end line." (At least he didn't call it a baseline.) I gave no response, but I thought several things, including: Have your players call the TO before they throw it in and you won't have that problem.

I don't want to bail on a lane violation, but do you pay attention to this much at all? How much anticipating, if any, do you do?
