We played about 10 points before I started counting and got to 23. There were about 4 actual BHEs in that set. lol

When you live with it, do you you assume there is a double contact or do you not blow your whistle if you do not see a double contact?
Thanks,
I can only assume then, that the coaches also saw at least some of the "discrete" signals? That would then basically throw you under the bus for each time you didn't call something that the R2 was calling.

So, if the R2 was watching the ball all the time, who was doing the R2's job???

1 or 2, I could see...but if they get to 23...we are clearly having a discussion at the stand during a time-out or between sets, long before that!
