Horizontal And Vertical ...

Exactly my point. A player standing on the court has a vertical plane while a player laying on the floor has a horizontal plane.
NFHS rules regarding a player's legal posture usually assume that a player is standing up and use the term vertical regarding such. These rules seldom take into consideration that a player may be laying on the floor, thus the almost complete lack of the term horizontal in rules describing a player's legal posture, in fact it's quite the opposite, the term horizontal often describes a player's illegal posture.
Are we to assume that once a player falls to the floor that rules using the term vertical should now be mentally changed to the term horizontal?
