Unless the NFHS was persuaded by Mr. Webb to interpret the new rule as ignoring such contact unless it's intentional.

The ball is still live, there is absolutely no rules basis for such an interpretation. Actually, it goes completely against the rules in regards to illegal contact during a live ball.

I'll continue with my correct interpretation of calling a foul. I don't follow IAABO interps.

To steal from JRut,

IAABO created this mess. Let them live with it.

Unfortunately, I have to. Now that he's got his "interpretation" changed into an actual rule, perhaps Mr. Webb will now rethink his "intentional" interpretation, and bring it back a little.

Just remember that most of us do not, so you should quit asking us why IAABO passed such an interpretation. 😉

And unless they put it into a case play, or I get direction from my local IAABO board to do it that way, you won't find me treating contact with a FT shooter like it's dead ball contact.

Well, at least the "cross the line" IAABO interpretation is now part of the NFHS rule book, so I feel better about calling it, and teaching it. Hopefully the IAABO "intentional, or nothing" interpretation will go away.
