High school games are not practice for college. Officials who use college mechanics in high school games are looked down upon by every supervisor that I know and also by our state deputy director, who is a college official. Practice college mechanics at camps and in summer leagues. Once again, they have no place in the high school game.

It doesn't take practice to not raise your hand.
