Your state office and the A-11 offense???

[Tom Hinrichs]

We have heard nothing so far. We have an on-the-field clinic this weekend, I hope to hear more about it at the clinic.

As I have mentioend in the thread I started, MD has stated that there is nothing illegal about it according to NFHS and will follow what the NFHS says.

No comment from the state.

The word in the last meeting is Legal

using 9-9-5 making a travesty of the game. I also understand that this decision was reached after our state association had some discussion with Montana, and I believe that it is illegal in Montana as well...

I'm okay with it being legal - I'm just worried about what we, as officials, are supposed to be on the lookout for in case the other team says some part of what they're doing is legal.

In other words, what do I as a linesman or as a back judge have to make sure of so that I can say definitively, "Yep, that's within the rules because...."?

No mention of it at state meetings.

Our SI has suggested that the wings help the umpire with ineligibles downfield since they conceivably could be spread outside his line of sight.
