Where did I come close to implying that?

Yes, the last 3 games x however many divisions your state has x boys and girls....yes, the last 3. Why? Not because they are that much more important...the reason is because in MOST cases, the TV is already there anyway so to do so would not put undue burden on the state from a cost perspective. Obviously not all state tournaments have TV which is why I submit the NFHS should change the language to say any time at the individual state's discretion and that each state shall establish their own guidelines relative to this issue.

Put yourself in the shoes of the those crews in Oklahoma, SC and Ohio....They'd have given their game check back to have had replay as an option to fall back on.

Don't make this out like we are curing cancer. All I am really saying is that if your state can do it, the Fed should not be a barrier.
