Being from Minnesota, we went to 18 minutes halves this year which covers 2 of the proposed rule changes. It seemed weird at first but you quickly adapt. We also went to instant replay at State Tournament for televised games, semis and finals. I had a State quarter, not televised, so no issue for our crew. I did see it used on some of the televised games.
The one rule I would be opposed which is getting a lot of positives is the 28 ft coaches box. Most high school gyms are not properly configured like college to really allow the coach to go to the baseline. Most high schools just have bleachers not chairs so they'd be in right front of fans, maybe even the band. There's no separation like there is in most college configurations. Keep it to 14 ft, keep them in front of their bench area.
