If a team wants to call five 30s, why not let them do it. It could easily be a strategic move (make a quick adjustment, but don't want to kill our momentum, etc.). It will keep the games moving--better for everyone. We don't have media or TV considerations. Seriously, someone should suggest this to the NFHS rules committee.

DrOfficial;
I like this idea. And because I like this idea, it will never be adopted.
