I'm always afraid that I'll miss the foot on the boundary while I'm concentrating on the illegal, or lack thereof, contact, for both the new screening rule, and the old block/charge rule. And it's another reason that I'm always pleased that we don't have the restricted arc in high school basketball.
It's like the "unfunded mandates" that the Sate of Connecticut is always putting on our local towns, especially in regard to education, "By new law, your school systems have to do it this new, and better, way, but we're not giving you any additional State money to do it". The NFHS is asking us to look for illegal contact and to look at the boundary lines without giving us an extra eye, or an additional lobe to our brain.
