Stop Clock Signal ...

Interesting reminder. Many non-officials would believe that the foul itself stops the clock (it only makes to ball dead in many circumstances).

5-8-1-A: Time-out occurs and the clock, if running, must be stopped when an official: Signals: A foul.

Note: It is my opinion that by "signal" a foul, the NFHS means that the "signal" can be audible, a whistle sounding; and/or an actual visual "stop the clock" (fist) signal.
