Connecticut Shot Clock ...

[JRutledge]

I do not think it is too hard for kid to play with a shot clock at the high school level. Yes, higher levels are recruiting or making decisions about players who come to their program, that is not the standard at the high school level. But just like anything else in the game, there are things that you can teach to be effective in the rules that are in front of you. The shot clock to me is not much harder than other rules we use for a player to adjust to. And since the style of play in the game is often where the shot clock would not be needed, I have no issues from that standpoint. I have always felt the issue would be the official that have to stay on top of issues with the clock because we will have people running the shot clock that will not understand the rules. But the players are the least of my concern.
