Philosophical discussion - should NF and NCAA rules be the same?

I agree. Even with 5 years of NCAA scorekeeping experience, I still get confused from time to time at the differences between direct and indirect technicals - particularly which ones count towards player & team totals - with NCAA rules.

The NF rule is clear and gives a clear punishment as opposed to the NCA rule which you can benefit from getting a T.

I'm not sure I understand this claim. What sort of T gives the team/player against which it's called an advantage?
