If they can determine when the whistle blew (and maybe that's the thing that I'm missing), wouldn't that be the proper signal to stop the clock (whether it's the game clock, or the stopwatch that they're using with the monitor)?

Lah me. It's too bad Chuck Elias isn't around. He'd understand the concept, being asked to work the table on a Final Four and all.
There's the obvious thing that you're missing right there, Scrappy. The freaking clock was
NEVER started! Howintheheck are you gonna
stop something using a whistle that isn't
going in the first place?
What next? Are you gonna tell me that if the whistle blew before the ball touched OOB, by rule you now have to go to the POI of an IW? What is the POI of an IW on a throw-in that was legally touched but not controlled under NCAA rules? An AP possession? Maybe give Memphis the ball if they had the arrow? Think about that one!
You're right. You are becoming Nevada-esque. The good news is that I just talked to Dan_ref, and being nice guys, we'll help pay for your lobotomy.
