;) Thanks, my bad. Some reason I thought her orginal post said they could. Sorry

That's what my boss does to me when she thinks I'm spending too much time on the internet. :D

Okay. But, I don't remember thuggesting that.

Ok, heres another example, why in the heck would NCAA mens allow being on the block?

What is the point of this having this rule different, when was the rule changed and why?

4 1 rulebook!

The block was created to give the player in the first space more of an advantage, in that it pushed the player in the second space further from the board. So if the player in the first space wants to put his foot in the block, why shouldn't be be able to?

Fine by me, that is wonderfull, but why is it ok for NCAA mens and not for HS or whoever else? It's no wonder there are so confused fans / coaches / players with these subtle differences.

4 1 book.

mopar60,
If the NCAA had confused coaches and players, I'll bet they wouldn't have them for long.

Ah, I get it now, they do know the rules and they only act like they don't after 50 % of the calls.

Pretty clever, I say! LOL!

I should have been more clear, I was referring more to the younger players and JH type coaches and fans. I guess that doesn't matter really, even if there WAS only one rule book many would still have trouble.

I digress.

2 or 3 books OK.

What if the hokey-pokey really is what it's all about?


If the Hokey-Pokey is really what it's all about, then we need to re-examine our religious beliefs or look into a career change.

My guess is that it's the same reason NFHS doesn't allow the players to enter the lane until the ball hits iron or glass.
