In tonight's Charlotte/East Carolina game, there was a scramble for the ball under East Carolina's basket. A held ball was called, with the AP arrow pointing towards Charlotte. After the held ball was called, a flagrant foul was called on a Charlotte player, and he was ejected. The officials told the Charlotte coach that there was a flagrant foul on his player and that player was ejected. They also said that there was no fight , so the player would not have to sit out the next game. The officials were very adamant about this. They also said that because of the flagrant foul, the held ball would be ignored, so East Carolina was given 2 free throws and the ball.

Was this the correct interpretation of the NCAA rules?
