That's the problem with most of the uniform rules throughout all sports, but especially NFHS. They come about because the coaches don't like what they see the kids wearing, but they can't get the kids to stop. So, they ask the rules advisory committees to add a rule so they can tell the kid it's against the rules and that will give them some teeth when they are asked to remove it. But, then they don't enforce the rule themselves, they wait for the officials to do it. Then, when the official enforces it, they are either OO or the Uniform Police.

I hate uniform rules.
