They got rid of that rule about 20 years ago.

It was dropped sometime after 1991-1992 because the rule still existed in 1990-1991 but was gone after 1994 because I scored an AAU game under NFHS rules where a team sat at half court for 5 minutes doing nothing before the coach decided to have them move the ball around. I even remember thinking { Doesn't someone have to force action? }

Seems to be some disagreement on when the rule was removed.

I remember playing a game in the 90-91 season in which the lack of action rule should have been enforced if it was in effect. It was not enforced. I did not remember that rule during the discussion in the thread I linked to here.
