It's not revolutionary, but it sort of calls attention to the need for the officials not to make the ball ready for play until all the officials are in position


This is just common sense by Redding. No reason for coaches on the offensive side of the ball to dictate how fast the officials spot the ball. Officials need to go at a pace that allows them to get into position to do their job properly.

anyone who would argue with this statement is either an idiot or knows that their favorite team gets an offensive advantage by deliberately making it hard for officials to spot procedural infractions that they routinely commit and wants that state of affairs to continue

they need to put a rule in that if you scream at an official to hurry up (ie not do their job properly) you get 1 warning, next time you are ejected, player, coach, or whomever
