One has to remember I retired from officiating college basketball after the 2007-08 season, and the difference in the application is strictly a rules interpretation made through a Casebook Play Ruling for the NFHS and an Approved Ruling for the NCAA.
I am trying to watch the Steelers game right now so I am trying to make my comments here short and sweet (right now BillyMac has felt a disturbance in the Force).
But the logic in the difference in the Rulings is the same logic with regard to the Closely Guarded Rule. The NFHS says that the five second count continues even when B2 replaces B1 during the closely guarded count against A1. Which is the opposite for the NCAA.
In both cases the Rules do not make any stated addressing either the Backcourt situation we are discussing nor the Closely Guarded situation I mentioned.
Back to the Steeler game.
