Those player control fouls on a drive to the basket are
usually still block or charge. The charge is just committed by the player with the ball. So we give the PC signal, instead of the charge signal. I know you knowt this, I just don't want people to think "Oh, that crash on the drive isn't actually a charge". It's a charge (usually), charged to the player in control of the ball.
It's still a PC foul in NCAA if the contact occurs before the shot is released. (For women, it's also a PC if the contact occurs after the try is released.) It's also a team control foul, obviously, but it's still a PC.
