NCAA Mens Kick Ball Rule Clarification Needed
MENS NCAA RULE
SHOT CLOCK RESET TO 15 ON DEFENSIVE KICKED BALL
Rule book reference; R2, art 6 (f) and R2, art 7 (b); pgs 60-61.
there is no reference to the following because shot clocks do not have 100's
sec showing.
CASE
Offense has ball and during a pass it is kicked by the defense.
Shot clock reads 15 seconds.
In shot clocks that don't have 100's of a second in fact the shot clock
could read anywhere from 15.00 to 14.01 till it changes to 14.
Since the rule implies that the offense should have a minimum of 15 secs I
beLieve that the shot clock operator should be asked to reset the clock to
15 and then we know they have the full 15 secs that is required by rule in a
"kicked ball situation".
I am trying to find if there has been any NCAA update on this situation.
Thank you.
