Something has to change; rule, mechanic, caseplay, or interpretation; something.

Can't have touch, shot clock ten second mechanic, and current NFHS ten second rule coexisting with no change.

The NFHS can change and be exactly like the NCAA (or the NBA).

Or it can change the shot clock "rule" to "control" (holding, dribbling) rather than "touch".

I believe that either way would successfully work and get rid of this nit picking unintended consequence.
