If you find me the 17-year-old high school player with the presence of mind to know what a flag is for (if he sees the flag at all) and then to say to himself, "Self, you need to foul somebody so these things offset", please send him to my house. I can probably have a much easier time convincing him to mow the lawn than I do with my 15-year-old.
It's been my experience that there are three groups of people with the least rules knowledge: Broadcasters, coaches, then players.
