Minnesota approves HS shot clock for 2023
The Minnesota State High School League's Board of Directors unanimously approved a motion on Thursday to mandate the implementation of a shot clock at the varsity levels of boys and girls basketball, starting with the 2023-24 varsity season.
Minnesota joins California, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota and Washington as the only states to use a 30- or 35-second shot clock. The mandate only exists at the varsity level, but schools can also use them at lower levels if both schools agree to it. The shot clock will be 35 seconds. In May, the NFHS urged the adoption of a shot clock across high school basketball with Rule 2-14 which states that each state association may adopt a shot lock beginning in the 2022-23 season — according to guidelines outlined in the Basketball Rules Book — to encourage standardization among states. |

Maverick ...
Minnesota is a real maverick.
Besides a shot clock, I also believe that they use a restricted area, play in halves, the home team wears dark jerseys, and they're sticking to the "punch" signal. Nevadaref's post also confirms that all three states that border Connecticut use shot clocks. Connecticut is completely surrounded. We can't hold out much longer. It's only a matter of time for us. Please send help.

Be careful what you wish for. It may come true.

You obviously didn't see my post about HS shot clocks in the NCAA thread.

In states where shot clocks are only used in varsity games, the "step up the ladder" from middle school, freshman, and junior varsity games to varsity games will be enormous, especially in a two person state like Connecticut, where only one person in the varsity crew could have any real game shot clock experience. Any progression "up the ladder" can be difficult, but at least (before shot clocks) the rules were the same at all levels, the games were very different, but the rules were the same, a travel in a freshman game is a travel in a varsity game, it's just that the varsity travel may be faster and harder to detect. Working with a shot clock in a varsity game will be a whole new universe for officials on the way "up the ladder", especially with different table crews at different schools. That's just my opinion. Some may say that the shot clock "step" is similar to the "step" in states that only have three person crews for varsity games, and not at lower levels, but there's no table crew to factor in for that "step", and as we all know, rules and mechanics are two completely different "animals". Rumor has it that if, and when, Connecticut goes to a shot clock, it will probably be for all high school games, at all three levels. While I'm not a big fan of high school shot clocks, if one is going to go with shot clocks, going at all high school levels is the way to go, getting young officials, and young players, ready for the next level.

Keystone State ...
I have it on good authority that Pennsylvania is going to the shot clock next year.

Interesting that the Illinois survey results that were published did not include the percentage of respondents that did not want a shot clock at all. That be some survey bias!
I did a private school tourney this weekend in which a 30-second shot clock was used. I don’t know why they bothered. It only got below 10 seconds twice the whole game, with zero violations. I did have to address resets several times though, as the shot clock operator was simultaneously the timer (bad plan). Maybe your mileage will vary, but in Virginia, there are few quality offensive sets, so the shot clock remains an unnecessary gimmick. I’m glad we’re not in a hurry to implement it here.

Who told you this? I need to know. Where are you getting your information from? Who does number 2 work for?!

Well if it was this week or last, I must've tuned out during that conversation.
LOL. I'm not scared. You woke me up from my 2 year nap/hiatus from the site! Either way, I didn't think we (PA) would see the shot clock under the current administration. But things change and talking heads, so.... My fears echo most of yours from the previous posts. The jump from sub level to varsity would increase drastically if they chose to only implement it at the varsity level. In my district we're all 3 man for varsity, but that's not state-wide and from my stint in Women's NCAA, I know that there are plenty of shot clock issues even at the D2 level, and especially down to the D3 and JUCO levels...both on the operator and the official's side. I can think of better ways to better the HS game. The shot clock rules aren't overly impossible as a ref and an operator, but they can certainly increase the amount of stoppages due to stop/start/restart issues when the idea is to have the game sped up. |

Of course, Abraham Lincoln used to say to not believe everything that one sees on You Tube. I read that on the internet, so it must be true. June 10, 2021: https://news.yahoo.com/clock-piaa-di...100000199.html I can't find anything newer from the past six months.
