You have my attention. Request you go into more detail about the old rule language, what has changed, and what the applicable rule-article-section is.

I'm dubious because:

A) language about definite knowledge has always been in place (at least as long as I can remember).

B) the case plays are still in the book, and with the NFHS's propensity to quietly remove old case plays, one has to wonder why they haven't removed or edited these two.

C) it's not like we have precision timing packs and monitors in HS, so why would the NFHS deliberately remove timer lag time allowance when the definite knowledge clause has always been a backstop for officials?
