The box score is wrong. I watched the game as it was played. The indirect technical foul was early in the second half. A Syracuse made a dunk to bring the score to 36-33 in favor of Vermont, and after dunking the ball with two hands, he slapped the backboard with his left hand before coming down.
Just to be clear the T was not for hanging on the ring, it was for slapping the backboard.

I thought that it was a good call and that the NCAA and NFHS should really crack down on this. It is basically taunting or showing off.

I had money on Syracuse and was happy to see this call made. It takes the lead on this particular play and allows us to follow up.
