Rule Books on line

I am going to come to Mark's defense. The list of books that ReadyToRef listed in his post have been put online by the NFHS within the last thirty days. These books are the first time that the NFHS has ever put rules and casebooks online. The NCAA as only started to put its rules books online within the last two or three years.

To be honest, I am suprised that the NFHS and NCAA would put its books online because the idea is to sell them to make money.

Mark, I believe if you check a little closer into this that you will find out that you have to be a paid subscribed member of the NFHS to surf their on-line case book. The membership fee is $30/official, unless you already have that benefit of being a member through your state association. Also, you are NOT allowed to print the on-line casebook- just surf it. Compare that to buying the books at about $6.50 each, and I don't see too much benefit of going that route.

As Mark P. said, you ain't gonna get any books for free from the NFHS.
