Flag or Not
« on: October 25, 2016, 04:51:02 PM »
Late first quarter:   2nd and 5 from the B10.   Dive play to just outside the 5.   After we are get the players up and back we set the ball and look over to see if it is a 1st down.   I turn to the press box to give the signal that it is 6" short and I see the home team head coach sprinting back to the coach's box.   He had run down to get a bird's eye look down the line.   No Flag on my part.

Two plays later they score.   After the extra point, the visiting coach comes down the sideline and asks if I saw their coach at the five.   I told him I did.   So you gave him a pass? Yes sir.   Do I get one too?  No problem coach I will make sure that you do (he was at the 20 yard line when he asked me this).     

BTW: The visiting coach is one that normally needs at least one pass a game anyway but he was a pussycat that night.
