You may want to give the ol' rulebook a little review yourself. The rule you cite references rule 10-3-7h and 10-3-1h which are descriptions of UNSPORTING FOULS. My interpretation of the situation you describe is that the jersey was not removed in an unsporting manner, it was removed for the reasons described in 3-3-6 which clearly states that this situation can be corrected by the end of a requested time-out. I would think that one avenue of correction would be to remove and replace the jersey. I do not believe that the spirit of the rule is to apply it to the situation you describe in the way you describe.
Just my opinion.

Sorry, Badger, that's not what the NFHS says. Read their comments on the rule changes on their website, or in the rule book, and you'll find that they want it enforced for all situations. I'd personally rather not have to deal with it, but it's there in print and there's no judgment involved.
