1) Camron, I agree with you it would be a logical and rational thing to do.

2) I am getting old and forgetful so I do not remember if the NCAA adopted the definition for Team Control Foul (TCF) and changing the penalty from awarding a throw-in to the foulee's team if the foulee's team is not in the bonus and awarding free throws to the foulee if the foulee's team is in the bonus to awarding a throw-in to the foulee's team one year before the NFHS did or if both Rules Committees adopted the definition and penalty in the same year.

That said, when the NFHS adopted the TCF definition the OhioHSAA decided that it would not use the NFHS's the TCF foul signal because it did not want to confuse () the players, coaches (), scorers () and fans (ROFLMAO).

That said (again), I use the TCF signal because I am a curmudgeonly old geezer (just ask my better half and our two sons and my sons will tell you that I am a bald old geezer, ) who agrees with Camron.

3) As I was writing this post I had a third point that I wanted to make but once again, because I am getting old and forgetful I cannot remember what my third point was going to be.
