I think it is largely the cost. I don't know what the cost is, but the upfront cost would be balked at by many administrators in times of shrinking budgets. I did a few games at Disney this summer that used the shot cock, and it was relatively easy to make the transition as an official. Except for a few times, I had a count going in the backcourt. Phasing in the cost of uniforms when white was mandated and giving 3 years to budget for them likely was less of a cost than the shot clocks would be.
