The size of the box is a state option. Two-hand reporting is not. Technically if Maine stays with one hand, wouldn't it be subject to losing its seat on the Rules Committee? Not saying that would or should happen, but just a thought.

Well, I don't know that answer to that.... But I'm guessing it's like bob says.

Agreed. After all, the rules require officials to wear black and white stripes, which doesn't happen in multiple states represented on the Committee.

And it is a rule to wear black and white stripes and many states do not wear those at all. So again states can and will do what they want on many levels. Not something new if you pay attention to these things (and I am talking multiple sports as well).

Those states that allow officials to wear other colors should be put on double secret probation. That will teach them.
