I am with you that it will take a significant action by a coach to bring the issue to the forefront. And I agree that most fans if educated about the rule may not care. But I think that most would have an issue with bogus nature of the game when they expect at straight up, legit competition. I remember my disappointment as a kid when faced with the epiphany that professional wrestling was a show and not a real competition. For me like softball it came down to the officiating. Found it odd that the referee always turned away at just the right moment to not see something. Just like umpires unable to see an IP from 30-40 feet away. Granted unlike wrestling the outcome is not predetermined by those at the top. At least we assume and hope that is not happening. But some of the parallels in officiating with the WWE and the NCAA seem quite similar.
RB,
have you ever asked jake why her HC doesn't even bother to complain about these blatant disregard of the rules? if the opposing team's HC's don't care, then it's going to be a tough case for the 'fans'.
