"1) Why should the high school game completely
resemble the college game? If you believe it should,
implicit in that belief is the assumption that the high
school game is merely a "minor leagues" for the college
circuit, and has no value as an end in
itself."
This (especially the last phrase) does not follow
logically. As much as I've enjoyed 4-quarter formats, a case
could be made that TU/B is the superior format, and
thus the best choice for high school not because HS is
a mere preparation, but because high schoolers
deserve to play on the best format.
