referee99, as Felix and rev said, let the ball hit. That way there is no doubt that the ball was dead because it was in the non-playable area.
(2) Your veteran may have been thinking USAV rules where it is not a net foul to contact the cables outside the antenna or to contact the net if the player is not involved in playing the ball. In NFHS rules, however, a net is a net is a net. You cited the correct NFHS rule in your post. Always make sure that you know which rules code you are discussing.
