a. There must be paid advertising present to be able to use the electronic media timeout format stated in Rule 5-13.4 and Rule 5-13.5.
b. When there is no paid advertising present, the electronic media timeout format stated in Rule 5-13.4 and Rule 5-13.5 may not be used.
Art. 4. In games involving electronic media (i.e., radio, television, or
Internet audio or visual broadcast), when the electronic-media format calls
for at least three electronic-media timeouts in either half, the following shall
be in effect: (TELEVISION, RADIO OR INTERNET AUDIO OR VISUAL
BROADCAST MUST BE PRESENT TO USE THIS ELECTRONICMEDIA
TIMEOUT FORMAT.)
a. When television is employed, there shall be four electronic-media
timeouts in each half. These electronic-media timeouts shall occur at
the first dead ball after the 16-, 12-, 8- and 4-minute marks when the
game clock is stopped.
1. The first timeout requested by either team in the second half shall
become the length of a timeout called for by the electronic-media
agreement.
2. When the first timeout requested by either team in the second half
is granted and creates the first dead ball after one of the 16-, 12-,
8- or 4-minute marks, the electronic-media timeouts for those
specified times shall occur after the next dead ball.
Note: For NCAA Division I tournament games, the men’s or
women’s Division I basketball committee may make the first
team-called timeout in both halves an electronic-media timeout.
b. When radio or Internet audio or visual broadcast is being used,
electronic-media timeouts shall occur at the first dead ball after the
16-, 12-, 8- and 4-minute marks or after the 15-, 10- and 5-minute
marks, when the game clock is stopped, depending on the electronicmedia
agreement.
1. The first timeout requested by either team in the second half shall
be 75 seconds long or longer when called for by the electronicmedia
agreement.
2. When the electronic-media agreement calls for fewer than three
electronic-media timeouts in one half, these electronic-media
timeouts shall occur at the first dead ball after the minute marks
specified by the electronic-media agreement.
