I think you are confusing the rule situation that was originally raised. If I'm reading Mark's original post correctly, what he has mentioned IS CURRENTLY an NCAA rule.
2001 NCAA Basketball Rules Book
pg. BR-123 Rule 10 Section 21
"Double Personal Foul - Award to the team in control. During a throw-in, award to team in possession of ball. (In all other cases, use the alternating-possession arrow.)"
Mark -- that is what you are proposing for the NFHS correct? If so, I would support that rule change (for many of the reasons you already stated) 100%.
The rule that Bktballref brings up is a totally different beast. Forgive me if I'm stating the obvious, but for those who did not realize this was a current NCAA rule, I felt like it was important to distinguish that Mark's original post and the point raised by Bktballref are two completely different issues.
