I think that your missing Jurassic Referee's point. NFHS 2-7-4 (The officials shall conduct the game in accordance with the rules, this includes: prohibiting practice during a dead ball, except between halves) is part of Rule 2, Officials and Their Duties. There are no penalties listed for this rule. Fouls and Penalties are listed under Rule 10 and there is no rule, foul, or penalty for practicing during a dead ball under Rule 10.
I'm sure that Jurassic Referee will be along shortly to post something sarcastic, or, maybe, we'll get the newer, kinder, gentler, sweeter Jurassic Referee.
