All true. The administrators don’t seem to grasp the vast and varied number of people involved with officiating and scoring/timing for the HS games. The training isn’t consistent or as thorough. The complications are just going to cause unneeded problems.

Nevada is one year ahead of Illinois and following the same implementation plan.
Nevada did the optional shot clock in non-league games last year. This year it is mandatory for all varsity games, including postseason.
