Post Preps Insider is your daily source for news, story lines, top games and more information on Colorado high school sports — brought to you by Denver Post preps editor Kyle Newman. On Tuesday, USA Basketball and the NBA released a joint document outlining rules and standards for youth competition in which the organizations recommended a 24-second shot clock for the high school level. CHSAANow’s Ryan Casey followed up the document with an in-depth look at why Colorado doesn’t have a shot clock, with the primary reason being that shot clocks are prohibited by the NFHS. And while that is certainly a legitimate reason to keep things status quo — if Colorado instituted a shot clock, CHSAA would forfeit its ability to serve on the NFHS Basketball Rules Committee — the bottom line is that high school basketball needs a shot clock, and it needs one now more than ever. According to a 2017 NFHS survey of more than 6,000 coaches nationwide, 57 percent favor the shot clock, while 62 percent of state associations (with 29 responding) are against the shot clock. Initial cost, installation, operating costs and the effect it would have on the game are often cited cons. Understandably, much of the local opposition centers around that financial piece.
