I noticed the "slamming the ball down" signal, too. I think it's in the book next to the "rapid slapping of the wrists" motion used by coaches to illustrate illegal use of hands.

Notice that nobody actually ushered them back there, they just went back on their own.

It's instinct. Just like my free range chickens that go back to the coop every night when it starts to get dark. I don't have to call them, the just do it.

Or their coaches! I have never insisted on players getting that far back but I have heard coaches (especially in youth leagues) tell them that. And, that works for me. I dont care how far back they go as long as they go...
