big guys

[stretch]

Just an observation on high school: Player A is 6'10". Opposing center B is 6'4". Center B gets low and bumps A off the post and hits him low on shots. This is ignored or missed often. 6"10" player A commits equal or lesser contact than B. Player A invariably gets called. I've had three division 1A college coaches ask "why"? They contend there are two sets of rules re: contact; one for small guys, and another for the tall guys, meaning the tall guy rarely gets away with anything. Is it just that the tall guy is getting watched more closely? I'm spending more time as an observer, and I'm not sure even the principle of verticality is applied fairly to tall guys. Hate to say it, but I think the college coaches are correct. We're seeing a lot more very tall players in high school. Are all officials at the high school level prepared? These tall guys do make for a different kind of game.
