1 Rule Change

I like changing that part of the correctable error rule, it seems like a double penalty for the foul, they score on the inbounds and then get a chance to shoot FT's when corrected, good call on that one

The defense is supposed to get penalized for committing fouls. If a team makes a good move and is fouled AND is good enough to get the rebound, should the defense get a break for the foul they committed?

I would say a rule change that penalizes the inferior team is not a good rule change. However, I will reserve my final judgement until I hear what BNR's rationale is.

I would like to have someone from both schools be responsible for being the uniform police. Or make it to where anything we see is a technical - one for each infraction throughout the game. That would force the coaches to make sure their kids wear the uniform the right way.

I am all for whatever rule changes reduce the possibility for inconsistency from crew to crew, association to association, state to state and sea to shining sea.

Maybe I phrased it wrong, if team a commits a foul that should have been a 1-1 for example, the officials and score keepers are late communicating and they take the ball out of bounds. Team B now has a chance to score on the inbounds, and when the play is over, they have a chance to go back and shoot FT's. Team B essentially ends up with 2 opps to score instead of 1
