Horn problems
A similar problem occurred in a game last evening, in which the horn kept sounding for many minutes until they just turned it off. Then they brought out the "horn in a can."
It was the Georgetown v. Arkansas game, and Ted Hillary was the R.
At first glance, it would seem to be a major problem to use something like this because the horn will definitely NOT coincide with the 00.00 on the game clock (at least rarely). So what to do?
By rule, and in this situation by common sense, any game that will be decided by the the final shot will be viewed on the court-side TV monitor. In fact, that is exactly what occurred, and then Ted Hillary declared Georgetown the winner.
