I don't know about the dinosaur part but the 6 girl basketball part is true. I'm not sure of when we changed so I'll assume rainmakers friend is accurate. We still are not square with the fed rules as there are still 11 "adaptations" used for the girls. No jumpball, when to change the arrow, injured player, etc.
When I was in high school, girls basketball was as, or more popular than the boys game. Just like NBA vs WNBA, I think we have tried to make girls play like boys and for the most part it's not possible.
If you are curious about current rules go to:
