NCAA Announcing Fouls

This is not the only example...there are quite a few fouls in the NCAA code that use S19 but are a mouthful to say. Is there any references of actual foul names that I could use?

thanks

Where are you getting that it would be signal 19? It will be it will be in illegal touching foul, which is signal 16? The reason IP is no longer a signal is cuz officials would call IP for everything instead of FS, IF, and some would even use it for IM, and IS fouls.

That is why I love having a field mic. You can explain what happened, and are encouraged to do so in order that the coaches and fans understand what the foul was. As mentioned above you would say something like "illegal touching, #85, the player went OOB's and was the first player to touch the ball."
