As a retired middle school science teacher, I'm a big fan of trying to understand the history of a rule to help one to better understand it, but be careful. Sometimes one can be confused by the many changes that take place for some rules. I had a jumper illegally catch the jump ball a few weeks ago and reverted back to the old rule (lose ball and lose arrow) in place when the NFHS first went to the possession arrow. Embarrassing? You bet.

Those who don't know history are destined to repeat it. (Edmund Burke)

I bet that Edmund Burke never officiated a basketball game.
