1. Your school puts the money and training time into it. Not every school does this (although I suspect most would to avoid embarrasment, if nothing else).
2. My main question is why? AFAIC, it's a solution in search of a problem. For the 1 or two games per season we hear about that end up 15-7 because of stall-ball (nationwide)? I just don't see it as worth the expense.

That said, if the states want to adopt it, I have no problem with opening it up that way: allow the state adoption to include the SC. I'd just be against it in my state, and against a mandatory use at the NFHS level (probably at least 10 years away).
