QED's don't mean squat unless they have rules backing. There was no rules backing for the answer posted on the district3hoops site. It's that simple.

1. 5-10-1 does not apply here, because there is no definite knowlege to correct the count. Therefore
if the shot counts and there are to be free throws, the clock would be set to 0, and the lane cleared. do we agree on this much?
2. 6-7-6 does not apply, since time has not expired. The timer has sounded the horn in error. Time does not expire when the horn is sounded erroneously with one minute left, why would it expire when the horn is sounded in error with an undetermined amount of time left?
3. 6-7-7 A foul other than player or team control has occured, so we review the exceptions
4. Since time has not expired, the conditions in exception c are met, so the basket counts and the free throws should be awarded.
"c. Article 7 occurs by any opponent of a player who has started a try or tap for goal (is in the act of shooting) before the foul occurred, provided time did not expire before the ball was in flight."
