Shot clock in state

[Indian]

Feasibility only-is to be discussed this week.

We can't even get the regular clock operators to do it right. Clock is not needed!

Shot clock is absolutely needed in high school basketball. Without it, makes it darn near impossible to overcome double digit deficits. Sitting on the ball on offense for multiple minutes does not help the game, nor these players who want to play at the next level.

Completely agree

That would put a lot of stress on the REFS.  The schools would need to pay for a ECO just like they do in high school football.   I think it is a great idea but there are a lot of logistical things to consider and obstacles to overcome.   It would also have to be state-wide which could put a burden on some of our rural counties to implement when it comes to budgets.   I am all for it but it would take quite a bit of work and a lot of commitment from lots of areas throughout the state.

It definitely won't be easy to implement. Probably a big reason for the initial discussion regarding feasibility. I do think it's needed, but as you said, it's going to take a lot of work to make it happen

A shot clock has been needed for many years. A defense shouldn’t have to play defense for two minutes without having a chance to get the ball back. This isn’t the 1950’s.

I've said for several years it would be a good thing for high school basketball. There will be obstacles to overcome as has been stated. I do think over all if is good for the game. In rural areas where schools of significant enrollment differences play each other maybe not. Holding the ball can be an equalizer at times. It has already been approved at the national level just not forced to implement. Additional personal as well as cost to make it work. Yars ago the 3 point lines was to be the ruination of high basketball. I think it has survived just fine.

About 1% go on to play at the "next level". Terrible argument there.

Is a shot clock needed? Maybe, but it will probably only go off 2-3 times per game and that is because a shot airballed so it didn't reset. One high school game in a thousand these days has any type of "stall". Games played literally 5 nights a week and you might see one that was an actual stall tactic. Low scoring games now are usually the result of terrible shooting and/or shot selection. No fundamentals being taught just jack it up however you can get it up there and maybe you make one.

The game has lost its way.

ASAP……….When I mean asap I mean ASAP. It’s also putting the USA youth behind. They overseas kids are catching up.

Like it don't like it. Doesn't really matter it's coming all that is to figure out is when. It's only a matter of time.

 

May 13, 2021 The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) has approved a 35-second shot clock for high school basketball, starting with the 2022-23 season. The NFHS released a statement on Wednesday, making it clear that the use of a shot clock will not be a mandate.

If implemented, the governing body needs to be the one to fit the bill.  I am sick and tired of getting stuck with the bill.  Also, their needs to be an official who works the clock.  Don't have to pay them what a regular official might make, but something.  This should also be paid from the TSSAA.
