I've mentioned it here on the board a few times, so maybe that's where you heard it.
I like the SBQ mindset. I think it's just a little more concrete than "did it give the defender an advantage". JMO, as always.
Did you get extra brownie points for mentioning it?

Lah, me.
Everybody seems to be re-inventing the wheel again. What is the difference between SBQ and what's in the NFHS rule book anyway? Last year's POE #2 on Rough Play--
"Handchecking- (1)Any tactic using the hands, arms or body that allows a player, on offense or defense, to control (hold, impede, push, divert, slow, or prevent) the movement of an opposing player is a foul.(4) Any act or tactics of illegal use of hands(offense or defense) that intentionally, slows, prevents, impedes the progress or displaces an opposing player due to the the contact, is a foul and must be called". Isn't that exactly what SBQ is?
I've been hearing about SBQ for about 45 years now, and the only thing that has changed is the terminology.
