The 6th/7th grade coach have seen the high school coach employ the strategy. However, I would assume that the high school coach didn't have to sit through 6 or 7 missed free throws for the strategy to work. If I recall correctly, the strategy was employed by a coach at one of the local catholic boys high schools. The coach is a considered one of best in the area.

The thought that kept going through my mind through the productive posts of this thread was how cruel it could be to the FT shooter if he/she is poor at the line. I think if this drags out to more than a couple of FTs something has to be done to alleviate the kid's embarrasing situation. Part of game management and concern for the well-being of the players, imo.
