I agree, but there would be violations here and no one would call the darn violation. I often would be the only person that called this violation, especially on the low block player. Most players would act like what they saw on TV. And IMO the rule was stupid for those individuals in the first place because they did what they saw instead of what the rule was. It was also a rule that often was called with more scrutiny or argument from coaches or players. I just hated the old rule and glad it has gone away. This is not the 1970. Maybe that worked then, but now things have changed.

Peace
