No Billy, you have stretched this past its limits. What exactly do you want from us, we are not the NFHS? You have been given choices on how to handle this play, when you are on the court you are going to have to make a decision and you can't take 5 minutes of internal debate to choose one.

It was worth it for me. I now feel that I can confidently penalize a team for participating with more than five team members if I discover it during a live ball (which we all already knew at the start of this thread), or during a dead ball if the clock is running.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this thread.

I still have a few more questions, but like Raymond said, the Forum isn't the NFHS.

Stupid NFHS rules editors.

I was actually quite surprised that the moderators didn't close and lock this thread a long time ago. Could it have anything to do with the professional manner and civility of our discourse?

Wait. I almost forgot. Stupid NFHS rules editors
