Sometimes the Connecticut jokes and other humor get in the way of getting your point across. This may be one of those times. The whole unapproved "come hither" signal thing is a joke isn't it?

Agree.

My point: If a official with the basketball (or just the basketball, which is rarely used, but acceptable, in my little corner of Connecticut) is at the throwin spot, then there will never be a problem with a coach not knowing where the throwin will occur.

You cannot just tell them?

If they ask, the official at the division line simply points to his partner, who has the basketball at the throwin spot. If they don't ask, we don't offer the information.

If I'm calling official on TO, I try and always tell coach or asst where they are inbounding and always try and look and communciate with partners where the throw in will take place. I may miss it on occasion but will ALWAYS do in a tight situation. Just being proactive.

I refuse to believe any of that (regarding Connecticut).

I am starting to agree with this position the more and more I read about those issues.
