NFHS 2017-18 Rules Changes

[Rich]

My biggest concern with waiting till 10 for the bonus in halves is that if a team only has 3 fouls and they need 7 take fouls.....it would get kind of ridiculous.

I agree. Im not sure id do anything different. Waiting til 10 fouls for any FTs will certainly benefit defense. I think with rule changes etc and my opinion of game, i want free flowing movement. Cutters get to cut, dribblers dribble etc. I might actually favor less fouls to reach bonus. 10 fouls promotes aggressive play. Now, if we reduce bonus to 5 fouls im not sure that teams would adjust because kids cant make FTs these days. All is above my pay grade. Id have to think a lot more to decide what i think would be best...
