I attended the Delaware State/Charlotte game on Dec. 30. Early in the 1st half, a Charlotte player was assessed a "T" for slapping the backboard following a dunk. Delaware State shot 2 free throws and the game proceeded. No team foul was assessed to Charlotte, and no personal foul was given to the offending Charlotte player. I talked with the person who posts fouls on the scoreboard in the arena after the game, and he said the official scorer, who appearantly has 17 years of experience, told him that the "T" didn't count either towards the team foul count, or towards that players' personal foul count. I know in HS this type of "T" would be unsporting, and both the team and the player would accrue a foul. Is this not the case in NCAA?

Thanks in advance/
