On the NFHS web site under COMMENTS ON THE 2005-06 RULES REVISIONS, it also stresses that the violation is for "leaving the court
during the course of play...". The same COMMENTS also say that the violation should be called as soon as the player leaves the court.
So....according to your interpretation of this rule, and also naturally complying with the FED directive, as soon as the player above stepped OOB we gotta whistle him for a violation.....before that player even starts for the hallway.
You are one great l'il mind reader, aren't you, to know definitively that the player above was leaving the floor for an
unauthorized reason?
Please let me know when you're gonna call that, Nevada. I'll book a flight to see that one. Should be entertaining as hell
