My take...both posts have their merits. There's nothing wrong with JMF pointing out that there is a difference between the NCAA-M rule and the NCAA-W. Someone will read that and learn something new...

I also think JRut has a point in that the overwhelming majority of conflicts that comes from rule differences between high school and college comes from the fact that the general public is quoting or trying to remember a men's college rule. Simple matter is many more people follow and watch men's college basketball than the women's game and will reference that rule...just like more people watch the NBA versus WNBA (though with their recent rule changes, they are pretty much, if not completely, aligned with NBA rules).
