1) (1) I am a bald old geezer who is blind in one and cannot see out of my other eye, and (ii) I am a senile old coot. 2) As I have stated before, my H.S. basketball coach (whose family lived only two doors from us and my sister, myself, his four children grew up together as best friends; besides being the boys' VAR basketball coach he was also the boys' and girls' VAR golf coach; and we all played on his golf teams and we boys also played basketball, but I digress, LOL). He also a founding member of the Trumbull County Bkb. Off. Assn. and I have been a member of the TCBOA since I started officiating in 1971. 3) The wording for the Rule has not changed for both boys'/girls' JrHS and HS and men's since the early 1960's. That means the wording of the Rule goes back to the NBC (National Basketball Committee of the United States and Canada) which predates the NFHS and NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committees. 4i) From JrHS (early-mid 1960s) until I graduated from H.S. (1969) I heard my Coach explain why this PLAY was a Backcourt Violation. 4ii) I started officiating in 1971 and have always been registered by the OhioHSAA. I was registered by: the FloridaHSAA from 1973 to 1977; the Southern California Bkb. Off. Assn. from 1982 to 1984; and since 1984 by the MichiganHSAA. 5) The wording for the Rule has not changed for both boys'/girls' JrHS and HS and men's since the early 1960's. That means the wording of the Rule goes back to the NBC (National Basketball Committee of the United States and Canada) which predates the NFHS and NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committees. 6) I will be the first to admit that the wording is ambiguous and that wording led to the Original Interpretation that we have had since the early 1960s and maybe earlier. 7) It was not until the mid to late 1990s that the logic behind the old RULING started to be questioned. And while the wording of the Rule still has not changed, withing the last two years first the NCAA and now the NFHS have added an EXCEPTION that voided the long standing Interpretation. As I have stated before that I have always been an ardent proponent of the RULING that is close to 60 years old, and if I had been voting I would have voted against the EXCEPTION. But the ayes have it and it is now the "law of the land" and I accept the new RULING. But to say that the old RULING never existed is just not true. I am a sure that there is a Casebook Play with the old RULING. I am not going to climb up into the attic to look now because my right hip (as I am staring hip replacement surgery) is bothering me to much to do that. And I would bet dollars to donuts that fifty years ago that there were some that did not approve the old RULING and preferred the newly adopted EXCEPTION. MTD, Sr.

9-9-1 exception
Conveniently sailing in the wake of USS DeNucci.
Here's a lesson, previously posted, that I'm hoping to use to educate groups of officials on this rule "change". Feedback and corrections would be appreciated... https://drive.google.com/open?id=1J-...gE943i3R92vK7R

Basketball Rules Accordng To Max Planck ...

I thought for sure that Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. was going to whip out his advanced scientific degrees, pull his slide rule out of the holster on his belt, and go on and on about quantum physics and that it's possible for one player to be in two locations at the same time. For some reason he decided to spare us from that rationale.

Yeah! That's my story and Mark, Jr.'s too. And we are going to stick with it and our slide rules can prove it. LOL! The Indians lost in 11 innings, 5-4 to the White Sox, but the Browns snapped a 19 game non-winning streak, beating the Jets, 21-17. MTD, Sr.

Minor Leagues ???
Are the Browns still in the NFL. Didn't they get demoted to a lower league like what happens to the worst European soccer teams at the end of each season?

The question to ask is did you touch the ball before you touched the ball? If so, then the ruling makes sense. Otherwise, there is no way to reconcile the ruling with the rule.
