No, no, no, no, NO!!!!!!
This (or something similar) is only goaltending in the NBA. No matter how much the freakin' fans and coaches scream, this is a legal play.
Here's how to see the play:
(1) For BI, you need one of the following qualifications:
a. Ball in cylinder
b. Ball in/on basket
c. "Reaching through" rim
(2) For GT, you need all of the following qualifications:
a. TRY for goal
b. Ball in DOWNWARD flight
c. Ball entirely above rim
d. Possibility to go in
None of the qualifications in (1), and a and b in (2) [where b is the more important] are met, so this cannot be BI/Goaltending!
(Try explaining that to the GU athletics staff, though!)
