But my point was that if they went to team control on throw in those rules would have to be modified or clarified.

Not really - because there wouldn't be team control in the front court. When you hand the ball to the player OOB under the basket for the throw-in, there would be team control, but because the player is OOB, he's not in the front court, or back court, for that matter. He's OOB. See what I'm getting at? It doesn't matter where along the baseline or sideline that player is, that player is not in the front court until he's in-bounds. So, while he's holding the ball OOB for the throw-in, there wouldn't be a 3-sec. count in the lane, because the ball's not in the front court. The same way, if the player throws it all the way to the back court and his teammate picks it up there, no violation. Because the ball went from OOB to the back court, not from the front court to the back court.

This might be clear to you but the NCAA did see the need to change the BC rule when the TC foul came in to cover BC on the throw-in from the front court. They also changed the 3 second rule btw.

The difference between NCAA and Fed. on team control on a throw-in comes into play of there's a foul on the offensive team, say an illegal screen. In NCAA, with team control on a throw-in by A1, a foul on team A results in a throw-in for B, even with the bonus in effect. In Fed., since there is no team control (yet) on a throw-in, B could still shoot the bonus.
I agree with Kelvin, the fed doesn't want to change too much at once. As I've already said I think the other changes will come next year IF the rule sticks, which I think it will.
