NBA shot clocks (where there is routinely a reset to 14 seconds instead of 24) that I've seen can be programmed with two times to which the clock can be reset. If you want to reset the clock to 24, press one button, if you want to reset the clock to 14, press the other.
I'm guessing most colleges won't have a system like this, and every reset to 15 seconds will be like resetting the shot clock when there's a mistake - there's usually no problem, but sometimes it takes a while, and sometimes the table forgets (or the clock is programmed wrong) and the next reset isn't to 30 or 35, but to the time from the last correction.

This was my concern as well, Mark.
