Do you let the Assistant be the spokesperson if the situation warrants? Dave

You may want to re-think your plate conference coverage. I doubt you would want input from a coach on how to correctly administer a plate conference. At the college level, coaches know whom they are to approach with questions. NCAA wants umpires to answer questions from any coach this year.
