Now that's much different from your first post in which you flatly stated, "No matter how unpleasant or unacceptable you may think it, it's not illegal," and "there's no rule book support of any kind."

That was the point of my responding post.

Notice that I did not say that I would call a T for this, I merely wrote that, in the absence of anything directly addressing it from the NFHS, I would interpret the rule and decide if it qualified as an unsporting foul.
Well, except that I put "interp" into "quotation marks" and I never said discretion or judgment. I'm certainly NOT a letter of the law kind of gal, but there's no way this call is anywhere near the letter of the law, that was my point. Someone called it a "by the book" T. It's absolutely not. Period. In fact, it's the interp that's the furthest/farthest from the book.
