Ruling?
First off, I think that we should make a case for it to be BI in NFHS. I realize the wording of the rule doesn't support that, but It's a rule change I'd be in favor of, to me it just makes sense. Just my thoughts on that-

As for your scenario, by your description, this would be a T from me. If the ball is rolling on the rim, then the player is not making a legitimate block attempt, because he can't. I'd have a T and shoot with cleared lane that will determine whether or not OT is necessary.
