I say: call the national level and ask them. That is the only way to really resolve this. Now we will find out who thinks they are too good to do that. and yes it comes down to that in the end.

Why do you need to call anybody when you have a definitive rules citation..i.e. NFHS rule 7-5-7(a)?

Whatinthehell more could you possibly want?

He wants somebody with a title to tell him they really, really mean 7-5-7(a).

Interesting situation happened this summer @ a ref camp.

Team A makes the basket and calls time out. Team B is ahead by a couple of points( can't remember the score ) and under a minute.

Team B came out of the time out and had all 5 players line up along the end line. We were a little shocked. Had never seen anything like it. Team A coach is a little perplexed as well. He starts yelling at his players. Team B makes two passes out of bounds a runs a play that gets them a break away layup. I gave Team B coach an A+ for coming up with a unique legal play that was well executed.

When I was in college, one of our opponents ran the same play against us. They didn't get a breakaway layup, though.

Hm, I don't recall what that stands for, but knowing the source I'd imagine that if you typed it your keyboard would explode.

Naw, actually I was kinda proud of having that honor bestowed on me by ol' Slappy Dan...

Just thinking of it brings a tear to my eye....
