You are correct, that is probably why I could not find it. I was working with a partner i had never worked with before the other night. He did not allow a time out asked for by a player as he was falling out of bounds. The coach got a little upset but is one of those rare quiet coaches.
During a time out I had asked my partner what his reasoning behind the call was. He said you cant call time out unless both feet were inbounds. I said that i had never heard of such a rule in NFHS rules.
Im not the type to fully believe someone spouting off rules unless they can back it up with a rule or case book number. So i thought i would ask here after not finding it.
Thanks for the information!
