I think Louisiana might be similar to Mississippi. There are two major differences.
1. The C is always across from the table...always.
2. The calling official goes to the C.
Let that sink in for a while and think of all the situations you can get into where this is a bad thing.
Play dictates the need for the Lead to move across the paint. The C, in a lot of cases, doesn't know enough to back out and the Trail is too scared to move down. Why? Because when the ball changes possession the Lead must move back to table side to become new trail, the C is in the Cadillac position and can chill and the old Trail - who would normally now be the C - is now the new Lead.
At least with the NCAA change we will not have to adapt to going across from the table any more on foul calls.
This is what happens in reality. IF (If) we try to do these mechanics in the girls varsity game, we likely revert to the flex for the boys game because the speed of the game amplifies how bad this system is. It just isn't good for the game.
