I played HS in the late 60's and what is now D3 College in the early 70's. The old Rule made for some real interesting strategy depending on what circle was used for the jump ball.
Plus, it made for some humerous moments. I'm 6'-2" and my nickname was "Dime" as that was the clearance my heel made from the floor at the apex of my jump. I got tied up with a 5'5" player in college. This guy's License Plate was "ISKY". I knew he'd get the tap and the crowd would ridicule me without mercy. At least it prepared me for professional life.
