What's the difference? In NFHS, all time outs are full. They all have a time limit, 30 or 60 seconds. I believe the term "full" came from the NBA, when they started having 20-second time outs. "Full" has just stuck with most, over the years.
Either way, if a coach says "full," he didn't say "thirty," so you have to have to give him a sixty.

I wouldn't get that picky about it, even. If he says anything that tells me he wants 30, such as "half" or anything that's obvious, I'm giving him a 30.
