Sounds like a "bridge too far" and is a lot closer to NFL than NFHS.

I do not officiate football (but I did officiate H.S. futbol from 1993 to 2005, ). But my best officiating friend in Ohio is a long time OhioHSAA football official and football rules interpreter. And this is straight from him: The Director of Officials Development for Football is a retired NFL official and the OhioHSAA does not use NFHS Football Mechanics and instead has written its own officials manual.
