So if A1 is dribbling and A2 pushes B2: foul on A2, no FTs, possession to Team B.
But what if A1 is dribbling and B1 knocks it away so that A1 no longer has player control? Then A2 fouls B2 while trying to recover the loose ball. Does B2 get FTs? There's no player control, but there's still team control, right? So it seems like according to the new rule, we wouldn't shoot FTs. What does it mean for "the offense to have the ball"? Team control, or player control? Or doesn't it matter?
I'm just trying to get clear on exactly when FTs will not be shot.
I agree, by the way, that if the NCAA wanted to be consistent, they would shoot FTs on all fouls, even player control. That is a very strange exception. But for practical purposes, I like not shooting on any offensive foul.
