at the beginning of the NCAA book, both NCAA Committees are mentioned and lists the schools they are from. It is possible that there are some officials in the committee, but all are listed as representing schools. And some of them are obviously coaches like John Thompson III of Princton (Men's Head Coach) and Dave Odom of Wake Forest University (Men's Head Coach). So from all accounts on the NCAA side, they are coaches and administrators. And anyone can look this up for themselves.

I'd be willing to bet that they know a heck of a lot more about basketball than just about anyone here. Further, I'd bet that they take the input of Hank Nichols and other officiating leaders very seriously.
Of course, we were talking about HS official under HS rules.
Back to the original topic...

Now if you claim they are all officials, where is the link or the background information on all the commitee members. Because other than you saying they are official, you said nothing about where they were from and how long they have been on the committee. No information other than you say it is that way. I just want proof or a place to look it up. I just read on the National Federation site not too long ago where a new member to the board was an administrator that had no officiating experience according to the press release.

That's just like you to throw out an unfounded claim then ask for proof when someone calls you on it.
You could look it up just like I did on

If that's not enough info for you nothing will convince you that you were wrong in claiming people other than officials are changing/writing the rules.
