A lot of these proposed rule changes seem like they are changes for the sake of change and to justify having an annual meeting.

I had this also happen in a recent middle school boys game where the players on the visitor's bench used their voices to try distracting the free throw shooter.

Except for one game where the coach...

Is this an NCAA-M game or a scrimmage? Between the two clips, I noticed bench players from the white team wearing #6 and #7. :confused:

As others already said, there's no IABBO in Michigan. The closest you'll get is people who moved to Michigan who may still wear items with IABBO logo from their previous state.

I like and prefer the punch for offensive fouls more than the PC signal. That said, I'm willing to bet that the NFHS decision is based on NCAA-M adopting the same signal for all PC & TC fouls. For...
