Shot clocks

[Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.]

None in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut.

I don't want to see a shot clock and the only thing worse that a shot clock is AP.

Your comments on the AP are, IMO, completely ridiculous. I know you've said this before, repeatedly (so you're consistent at least), but still...

Jump balls have to be the most idiotic way to settle a tie up. You have a 5'4" player make a great defensive play and tie up a player who's 6'2" tall and those two are supposed to "jump it up" in order to determine the next possession?

Never mind the fact that we'd have 10-20 jump balls in just about every lower level girls game.

You want to eliminate the held ball in the NCAA, fine. I can almost go along with that. But in NFHS rules? You're just not willing to see what it would be like if we went back to the old way (which, BTW, is probably 30 years ago now -- I started officiating 25 years ago and we had the arrow then).

In the Constitution State, prep school varsity games, both boys, and girls, use a shot clock. Prep schools use a hybrid version of NFHS, and NCAA, rules.

Billy:

I apologize for misspeaking for the Nutmeg State. It is has been a few years since I last officiated in the Starter Girls' Summer Classic and back then there was no shot clock for H.S. basketball.

P.S. AP, .

It's a money thing.
We'd love to have it here, but GHSA rightfully won't require the schools to purchase the equipment. Some say it's either work 3-person crews or sacrifice that for other "niceties"......I'll take 3-person ANY day.
