9.9.3 Situation B talks about the difference between creative plays and illegal acts. It says "...actions or verbiage designed to confuse the defense into believing there is a problem and a snap isn't imminent is beyond the scope of sportsmanship and is illegal."

To me, that tells me the Andre Ware play you describe would be illegal under NFHS rules.

PS - I didn't have audio either but watch the coach on the sideline holding up the "correct" ball for everyone to see.
