As Bob and Camron point out it is different. Saying the same thing in a different way---In NFHS if you are holding the ball the only thing allowed to touch the floor is the hand or foot. If you bend over and your knee hits it is a violation...even if your pivot foot never moves. Also, in NFHS, if you get the ball with a knee already on the floor you cannot stand up without first dribbling the ball.

In NCAAM you can touch the floor with knee etc...gain ball on floor and stand IF you keep a pivot foot.
