Breaking the huddle with 12 is a flag as to not confuse the defense and provide an unfair advantage to the offense - I understand that.
In regards to "no huddle" teams, do they just get a free run of people on and off so-to-speak?? It is my understanding that a player must report inside the hash marks - but we had a situation where no huddle teams have had 3 backs (QB and 2 RB's) trying to figure out who's in the game, while on the outside a couple different receivers doing the same thing. This can cause quite a bit of confusion for a defense when trying to determine offensive formations...
It seems to me the above to scenarios are similar in nature. Why is one a penalty, when the other is not??
