My question is this: in HS/NFHS, the only penalty can be a T in this situation. Correct? And how often have you had to call it? Is it almost automatic or does it just never happen?
Correct. Never seen it happen to the point that it was obviously not a play on the ball since hitting the board hard is not, by itself, reason for the T.
