The NFHS and NCAA rules are quite clear for this type of play. By definition: a personal foul is illegal contact when the ball is live. That means that, not withstanding the airborne shooter portion of the personal foul definition, a illegal contact when the ball is live is a technical foul.

Yup, that's certainly quite clear. A personal foul is illegal contact when the ball is live. And illegal contact when the ball is live is a technical foul. Ergo, a personal foul IS a technical foul!
Who woulda thunk it?
[/B][/QUOTE]Ahhh, thus a technical foul counts as a personal foul and a team foul.
