Chuck, he may be wrong, but if Kurt Whoever is the appointed rules interpreter responsible for giving out basketball interpretations for the Illinois state association that is affiliated with the NFHS, that ruling is now official

That is my understanding of the statement in the front of the rule book-
"Requests for basketball rules interpretations or explanations should be directed to the state association responsible for the high school basketball program in your state. The NFHS will assist in answering rules questions from state associations whenever called upon." Rut did exactly that, and got an Illinois ruling.
Iow, it looks like the FED and Illinois might have issued conflicting interpretations.
Bob Jenkins, your take?
