Would the R/crew chief be expected to know that the time should not have been added back ? :04 off the clock hardly qualifies as a significant amount of time but I'd like to know if that would be a factor in getting another assignment deeper in for this crew.

Assignments for the first weekend of games are pre-assigned to the officials and are told if they are staying 1 or 2 days at a site. Of the 7 that are told they are staying for day 2, they will not know if they work one of the round 2 games or are the alternate (sitting at the table) for both of the games until their region of games are finished for the day. A site evaluator/committee gives a recommendation who works the 2nd round. The following day, the 7 officials receive a voicemail about who is working and the alternate.
Of this crew, the "R" and the alternate will likely advance to round 2 (maybe the U1).
Per the NKU Men's Basketball website:
Northern Kentucky University Athletics
Officials: Brian O'Connell, Lamar Simpson, Ray Styons
The most interesting thing will be if anyone from this crew (including whoever was the alternate official at the table) advances to the Sweet 16 or Elite 8 round. If indeed the crew kicked this adjudication of a Correctable Error, they should not advance IMO.
