No one, or not many?
I believe that JRutledge works, or has worked, in at least two different states, but has JRutledge observed officials here in my little corner of Connecticut?
Back in 2012-13 and 2014-15 when the NFHS made this a priority, my local board made this a priority.
I actually remember sitting there and saying to myself, "This will be a flash in the pan. No way this will survive the test of time".
I was wrong. Probably because coaches like it that way. Consistency is the key.
If coaches had pushed back over the years, the NFHS's attempt to eliminate almost all handchecks would have been long forgotten here in my local area, and we would probably be back to advantage/disadvantage.
Once again, as usual, when in Rome ...
