Please cite the NFHS rule reference for this.

Site a rule where I am wrong?

I also looked at the video again and it looks like the player touched the ball in the FC and then stepped into the BC. It is really close and as I said before I can see why it was not called if that was the case.

9-9-1, "if he/she or a teammate last touched or was touched by the ball in the frontcourt before it went to the backcourt." Or is there another rule you know of that makes it a violation.

Cite a rule that says it is a violation....if there isn't one, its legal.

Nothing like changing your description of the play to make your ruling correct.

So if he touches the ball while in the FC and then is dribbling and touches the BC, you are saying that is not a violation?

No, the situation was that the player was in the backcourt while the ball bounced up from the frontcourt and the player (still in the backcourt) then touched the ball (which had frontcourt status until it was touched) and started a dribble....no violation. That player was not the last to touch the ball BEFORE it went to the backcourt (by being touched by the player who was in the backcourt).

IF that player had touched the ball to start the dribble while he had frontcourt status, then stepped into the backcourt, it would be a violation, but that is not the situation being discussed or the one you described earlier....

First to touch and last to touch is not the only way you can have a backcourt violation.

It looks to me that he touched the ball before his feet were in the backcourt. I will look at it again but if he is dribbling and touches the backcourt that is not a last to touch, first to touch situation. That is a player taking a ball to the back court.

So again, if it is not first to touch/last to touch what rule prohibits this?

If that is what happened, then you'd be right, but that is not what you or others stated earlier.
