I know who you're talking about! [emoji3]

Whether you call it Cadillac or some modification thereof, having used it in the HRBOA the past two seasons, I have to admit it's pretty darn good if done correctly and you have a crew that commits to hustling. Having just returned to NFHS 2-p mechanics in my new state, I must say I feel like I'm guessing more (which forces me to pass on many likely calls) and that my angles are awful.

3-p is still far superior. But, if you have to use 2-p, I'd argue that what the NBA does and what is done in Tidewater, Virginia, is much better. That said, it is probably harder for a new official to learn (NFHS 2-p mechanics are quite straightforward).
