I don't think that's what we concluded, rainmaker.

Does the disconcertion rule apply to bench personnel from the opposing team?
We've talked about this in the past, and I think we concluded that by the book, it doesn't, but in reality it might, but to weigh the situation carefully.

The FED issued a ruling about 3/4 years ago that said that you definitely could call disconcertion on the bench.
Agreed. Rule states "No opponent shall disconcert the free thrower." An opponent is any participant of the opposing team.
