NFHS and NCAA sometimes make things more difficult than they ought to be trying to make everything fit into nice neat defintitions, or trying to make definitions fit consistently. That's why is has taken NF how many years to figure out the player catching the ball is possession and a violation just wasnt fair.
Maybe we'll get smart enough not to count the Offensive fouls towards the bonus either... Naw that would be too much to ask.

I have to agree with most of the above.Using the NBA definitions would make some plays a lot easier and simpler to interpret,call and apply.Maybe players,coaches,fans,announcers,some officials,etc. would have a better understanding too of what the right call and application is.Most of them don't have a clue about the concepts of player and team control as currently defined in NCAA/FED.I have to agree with Chuck,though.I can't see the logic of not counting offensive fouls toward the bonus.I do like the NBA rule,however,of starting the bonus fresh each quarter.That used to be the FED rule a long time ago-5 fouls per quarter put you into the bonus then.It makes for a much longer game now-especially when the skill level is low.
