Even small schools like Northview. During my time there very few kids brought up from JV at the end of their season would even step on the field. Coaches want this just for the sole purpose of injury backups, and that is why small 1A to maybe around 3-4A need this rule change. @James, you gotta realize most the kids that will play for JV and Varsity will see little to no playing time.

Also, what constitutes a quarter? One play is considered a quarter or playing time that equates to a full quarter? The latter would mean a player could essentially play 2 full games each week, which certainly isn't healthy from a recovery and rest standpoint.
