I can only hope there is a correlation. I'm skeptical, but hopeful.

So much for that. Board voted just a few hours ago to rescind the decision.

I'm fine with that, too.

What is this "coaches box" of which you speak???

Maybe Massachusetts, where we were early adopters of the shot clock (way back in the early-to-mid 90s) and used halves for years before switching back to quarters 3 years ago.

Does Wisconsin give up an NFHS vote for doing this? I believe the shot-clock states already give up their votes.

I'm well aware of what's going on in my own state and the entire process around the adoption and the recent recision.

Playing 18-minute halves has cost us our vote, if I understand the NFHS correctly.

A state doesn’t have a single vote, from my understanding. But, look at that little regional map at the beginning of your rule book. If a state chooses to non-conform in a particular sport without NFHS approval, it forfeits its eligibility to represent the region with a rules committee member. In other words, when the current member’s term expires, NFHS will not solicit a nominee from a non-conforming state.

All in all, non-conforming carries very little penalty. This is probably why so many states do it in some form or another. They just don’t care if they don’t have a seat on the rules committee two years out of every fourteen.

I wonder what would happen if all the states in a given region were non-conformers? I suppose maybe you could just realign the regions...

I think basketball operates differently than other sports, where each state has representation.
