I think human reaction time should be an accepted practice at all levels and all sports! I think the only reason that no lag time is not in high school is money.
Why don't we equip basketball uniforms with motion sensors and contact sensors, if a player moves before the sensor picks up that the dribble started or if the sensor notes sufficient contact bells and whistles sound.
No big deal is made when a star player misses half his shots, but we miss a call or the bench is a half second to slow it is a big deal. Sorry that I am venting, but we are all human (coaches,players, fans) but of course officials are supposed to be super human.

Hey, if everyone will go to Precision Time, we won't have to worry about lag time!
