According to Peter Webb, Coordinator of Officials for IAABO (International), these rulings supposedly came to him from the NFHS. I'm curious as to why the NFHS has not clarified these rulings in any way that I am aware of. When are NFHS mid-season clarifications usually published?

Ignore live ball contact unless it's intentional? Since when?
