Shot Clocks
A state doesn’t have a single vote, from my understanding. But, look at that little regional map at the beginning of your rule book. If a state chooses to non-conform in a particular sport without NFHS approval, it forfeits its eligibility to represent the region with a rules committee member. In other words, when the current member’s term expires, NFHS will not solicit a nominee from a non-conforming state.
All in all, non-conforming carries very little penalty. This is probably why so many states do it in some form or another. They just don’t care if they don’t have a seat on the rules committee two years out of every fourteen.
I wonder what would happen if all the states in a given region were non-conformers? I suppose maybe you could just realign the regions...
