Good advice even without the rule "change."

I don't know if I totally agree with that, Bob. I don't consider it my job to ensure that the kids know who they're defending. That's the coach's job. I'm not even sure I would consider it to be game management. If the offense is ready to put the ball in play and you withhold it to let the defense get itself together, haven't you disadvantaged the offense unfairly? I'm just throwing it out there. I don't really have a strong feeling one way or the other. I just never heard anybody explicitly say that before.

I agree with Bob on this Chuck. If I hear a team discussing who's got who then I'll just wait to put the ball in play, either FT or OOB. Only takes a few seconds.
