That's 5-10 seconds I do not take. Official gives me a prelim, I report, U steps off, we go.

"Try‐Run or Try‐Pass: Wings do NOT signal “no score” when short of GL – the R does this. Why? What if one Wing signals “no score” & the other Wing gives the TD signal."

Really? Our covering official signals this. Confirm with the other wing first, then signal. People are looking at the covering official, not the R.
So in a tightly contested, overtime game with a large crowd, A attempts a run up the middle for the win and is stopped inches short of the goal. Ohio would want their wings to_______?

Run and report to R and let him signal?
Make eye contact and then communicate with R a la Aquaman?
Covering official attempt to yell over the apprehensive crowd what he's got?

Those circles coming out of the wing's forehead would give it away.

I would think marking the dead ball spot would suffice.

Mayer must have taken a course in micromanaging 101. I get it to a certain extent, but come on. 30+ complaints on every bulletin?

+1. I would rather not be chastised because I let the coin hit the ground instead of catching it or because I wind the clock three times instead of two. College coordinators couldn't care less about that stuff, not sure why Ohio insists on micromanaging every detail.
