Again, this is like arguing if you like a blonde over a brunette or a big butt over a small waist. At the end of the day I am going to be alright with what I like you will be fine with what you like. And if this is a hard adjustment, I feel there are bigger issues to worry about adjustment from the two codes. Oh well. Peace

Rich I believe I made it very clear what we do. The wings are not responsible for counting the offense and one wing is usually counting the defense (the LJ). The count comes from the R and the U. If the numbers are correct, all you have to do is count 4 in the backfield or realize someone is covered up (which we would communicate by other signals to each wing). We have the wings worry about catching substitutions or eligible, not counting the entire offense.
Again, I do not see this as a problem. It works pretty well just like other aspects of officiating a football game where we have to work together. Peace

Isn't this what I said?
You have to get the "11" signal from the R/U and then you count the backs. In NCAA rules, you don't bother with looking for that signal -- you just count the backs. It's not the mechanics that I care about, though. Anyone who's ever had 10 run out on a punt and have 6 on the line and had to throw a IF flag for no good reason wishes the rule was written like the NCAA rule was written. |

And if you do not worry about a signal, OK. I guess. Again not something I worry about or have to worry about on my crews at either level. Again such a rare situation to even deal with, but I guess someone has to worry about something while we officiate. Just not something I worry about. I am indifferent either way. It does not need to be changed because some college guys do not like the rule. That is poor reasoning as I have not heard major complaining by anyone for this rule but a few college officials. Peace

You mustn't work a lot of JV or freshman games. I do -- it gives me something to do on Monday and Thursday nights. The number of times we "run short" on special teams plays at those levels is staggering.
And if they don't move a 7th player up to the line, it's a foul. I'd just rather have that not be a foul, is all. |
