Officials got it right... Basket Interference per 4-4-2

NCAA Rule 4-4-2: Basket interference also occurs when a moveable ring is pulled down by a player so that it contacts the ball before the ring returns to its original position.

Ball was difintely in the cylinder and touched the ring while it was in the down position.

Rut: 4-41 is about jumpers. Even if you meant 4-4-1 it still does not apply as that is referring to a player touching the ball while in the cylinder. This did not happen.


BktBallref and Rut: You both say it is not BI because the try was not successful by rule. To the contrary it is the very fact that the try was not yet successful that kept the ball alive making Basket Interference the proper call by rule.
