It's not. I just gave it as a suggestion, if he wished to distinguish his count. It is highly likely that this is unnecessary as the times when it is best to let the action continue despite knowledge that the clock isn't properly running occur in great minority when compared to those situations when it is best to simply halt play and deal with the clock right away.

And just when you think you are out of the woods, that same darn video proves that on your blarge call, one of you was definitely wrong.

You're a funny man JAR. 😉

I would think pretty much every night video of the game would be both a friend and an enemy to most of us.

Yep, video is going to confirm the calls that you got right and highlight the ones that you missed. Anyone who is willing to watch tape with an open mind and be objective about his/her performance can learn and improve a great deal.

The three second count is not a visible count. Is this not definite information?

I do not believe that a three second count for a player in the lane is constitutes "definite knowledge" under NFHS rules for correcting a timing error. JMO. 🙂

Why the hell not? One, two, ball knocked out of bounds. Clock hasn't started.
You can't take off two seconds?

First, 5-10-2 stipulates "an official's count OR other official information."

I agree -- and I don't think it need only be any type of rules-based count (e.g., 5-second closely guarded, etc.)

I' m with Bob on this one.

Nothing says you need a count going nothing says it needs to a situation where a count is going.

If I know the clock has not started. I will count to a point where I can stop the play and correct it... I am sure as heck not going to blow a fast break because clcok did not start.
