Message: [QUOTE="MD#12Fan, post: 3795201, member: 8636"] At the high school level? Really??? I can see "let 'em play" at the youth level. HS ??? Ugh! Your comment above was smart and nuanced about having the pivot foot planted and then another step with the lead foot. Fine, point taken. Not what I saw, but a good point. Then you said, "let 'em play". I'm lost. Are you saying that basketball rules are too hard to learn? I think that's legit if that's what you believe. I honestly believe the wide receiver- defensive back rules are so complicated, that nobody understands them. I think it hurts the game. What's an 80 yard drive with 3-4 PI penalties. They need to change the rules back to some common sense standard. I think they successfully did that with holding penalties on linemen. I honestly think everyone understands holding, players, refs, coaches, and fans. When they grab and turn the player, it's holding. So, do you think traveling is too difficult to teach, learn, and call on the court? I played through college and I felt like I knew in my head what traveling was. I got called a bunch on that play that Paige had called a few times, when you move both feet on a drive before you put the ball down. It's a travel. [/QUOTE]
