I think it's great. With flu season kicking off about the same time as basketball, I think it will prevent the spread of influenza. By players not being able to touch or get within a few feet of each other will cut back on the spread of many illnesses. Schools should also order more hotdogs. Sales should increase by around 30% due to game time extension. Good opportunity for fund raisers for coaches. Utilize this time to get sponsors for your free throw shoot a thons. It will also allow all kids to be able to play. Now you don't even have to be in shape due to the clock stopping on average every 22.4 seconds. Players should be allowed to go home and study after fouling out. This should average out to several hours of study time for each kid throughout the season. I could go on and on about the benifits of this rule but I think I've praised KHSAA enough. Be glad to see the manditory helmet rule next season.
