MN does the Back Judge basketball style count as well.

At one point, I think there was a suggestion that the R give a verbal count of the last 5 seconds at the same time... but that was quickly rejected because if the R doesn't see the B start the count, he could be counting "5...4...3... (B whistle... flag)", leading to the inevitable "But the referee was a 3 when the flag came!" fiasco. Plus, the R shouldn't be looking at B when the snap is imminent anyway, R should have a lot of other things to worry about.

Seems weird that IA wouldn't want a visible count, but I'm sure the Powers That Be(TM) in IA have their reasons.
