4.Eliminating the “hand is part of the ball” principle and basing foul rulings on the effect of the contact on the ball handler.
- if college (or the rest of the world) does not change this, why even entertain an opinion?

5.Modifying the hand-checking rule so that a foul is only called when the ball handler’s freedom of movement is clearly impeded.
- We are opening up a subjective opinion of each official having a different interpretation of the freedom principal

11.Should the traveling rule be modified to permit additional spin-move and jump-stop techniques that are currently ruled as traveling, thereby expanding the range of legal footwork for ball handlers?
- again opening up subjective opinions between officials.

My point is administration has made rule changes and decisions that make our job more difficult to adjudicate the game.

The lack of consistency is very apparent when you have college level officials doing high school games.

We need the rule bodies (except NBA) to work together to have consistent, clear rules at all levels.
