Don't mean to be a bother this morning, but this has been bothering me for a few weeks now, since a colleague asked me about it and I couldn't locate it.
There was something issued on the NFHS web site when this POE was put out, if I remember right. I'll look through some old junk- I think that I printed it off at that time to talk about at one of our early meetings that year. Hopefully, I still got it squirreled away someplace. Maybe MTD SR. has got something in the attic and can help out. Mark? Anyway, it said something about telling us that we had to call the intentional foul if the coach was hollering "foul him, foul him", even though the defender might actually foul while making what looked like a legitimate attempt at a steal. The consensus that we came up with, after discussion, was that we were gonna call the play by regular standards--i.e. normal personal foul if the defender played the ball: intentional foul if the defender played the player. Most officiating groups came to the same conclusion, I think, which is why that particular part of the POE was never strictly called as originally written. I think that there was more concern at that time, anyway, by the FED about officials not calling intentional fouls when defenders were wrapping their arms around someone or fouling someone off-ball.

Does that sound just about right for where you were officiating at that time?
