Aggie - have you had someone actually suggest that in clinics? I've heard exactly the opposite here in Dallas, in fact just 3 weeks ago this was specifically addressed in a breakout session. I can't see this being called an unfair act unless it was blatantly obvious that that B was trying to confuse team A, which would be quite a stretch.

A Team B player simply asking for time out when they don't have any is NOT a foul. It doesn't BECOME a foul after an official mistakenly stops the clock either. Again - this is not basketball. If the NCAA wanted this to be a foul, I'm sure they would write it into the book.
