And given the no-call under the rim, I'm assuming they're not using HS rules, even if it's on a HS court.

It is questionable if there are even consistent academic standards used to even educate those kids outside of basketball.

I don't think its questionable at all.

Not sure I follow. Many people pass on marginal contact (based on their judgement). Actually I think college officials call much more than HS officials want to call.

One of the plays Jet posted looked like a good PC, but was no-called. It was low with a secondary defender. I could be misremembering it, though.
