That can't be right. If a new guy comes on the field, the ref should hold up the offense. I cannot imagine this is legal. If it were, every offense in the country would do it.
Correct, but I think most competent crews would hold the play up a bit so the defense could at least adjust to where the guy lines up. At least that's what Butch said he felt they should have done.
I think this is what CBJ was talking about, substitution also means filling a vacancy. Section 5 - While in the process of substitution or simulated substitution, Team A is prohibited from rushing quickly to the line of scrimmage with the obvious attempt of creating a defensive disadvantage. If the ball is ready for play, the game officials will not permit the ball to be snapped until Team B has placed substitutes in position and replaced players have left the field of play. Team B must react promptly with its substitutes.
if there's a substitution, the ref is supposed to stand over the ball until the defense is allowed to match up personnel wise.
A penalty would be called if the huddle was broken with more than 11
Also when teams run fakes where they have a guy hide on the sideline he has to come inside the numbers before the formation is set
I think Dust is right that sending 11th guy on isn't subbing.
