Hell, we already have enough problems getting the timer to run the score clock properly in some games now.

Might be OK for the big schools with serious programs. Some of the others? Shudder......
LOL, we have a 30 shot clock for girls in MD with no 10 second count in the backcourt.

And you're right, it's an extra headache for the officials at some games, especially in those "rare" instances the shot clock operator doesn't know the rules or is just plain uncoordinated to push the pause or reset buttons. Of course the fans are more than happy to help out with their yelling.
