Had a JuCo coach ask yesterday if it's legal for the opponent's bench to yell out during free throws. This was during the second half, so that bench was a long way away. I replied that they're so far away and he just nodded his head.
This is what the NCAA men's rule 8-5-1 reads:
f. No opponent (player or bench personnel) shall disconcert (e.g., taunt, bait, gesture or delay) the free-thrower.
I'll look for any applicable case plays later, but based on the rule by itself, that leaves a lot of judgment up to the officials.
