Nope, not at all. Sorry. My opinion on the arrow is different from both the NFHS committee and the vast majority on this board.

Normally, I just follow the rules and keep my mouth shut, though.

M&M rewards me by not posting his Windmill pic.

I would post a pic of a windmill, but I'm in my room and don't have access to a computer.

So what is your opinion on the arrow!

I hope I'm not opening a can of night crawlers but what is your opinion on the arrow and how does if differ from the majority opinion?

My opinion is that the arrow has done its job once the thrower has been handed the ball. I would rather see it so the arrow's only job is start the throwin, not give a complete throwin; it would change as soon as it's handed to the thrower.

Anything that happens during the throwin (fouls, violations, etc) are a result of that throwin, so the arrow has already had its effect on the game.

That said, the committee (and most here agree) believe the throwin team should get a complete throwin; therefore fouls committed during the throwin result in the arrow not switching.
