If that state is correct, I don't think they have any "state rules interpreters"
Would be interested in the authority of the one who was wrong

Perhaps Rules Interpreter wasn't the best term to use, but I believe he is the head of basketball in the MHSAA. He does the voice over for the annual online rules meeting.

In reviewing free throw mechanics with one of our cadet classes, the chair of the training committee stated that players in the marked lane spaces could not put any part of their body over the plane of the lane line, or the plane of the lane space lines. Unacceptable? Yes. Do mistakes like this happen? Yes. The other members of the committee either didn't note the mistake, or didn't want to embarrass him in front of the cadets. We let him know about it at the end of class, and he corrected himself at the next class. Teaching is tough. I know. I did it for over thirty years, as a day job. Maybe that's why I'm more tolerant than most.
