Dan_ref was right to reference the NCAA rule that you posted, but I think the basic question at the beginning of this thread is answered by this part:

Quote:
from NCAA Rules:
Art. 1. A player shall not dribble a second time after the player’s first dribble
has ended, unless the player subsequently loses control because of:
A teammate -- or an opponent, for that matter -- placing a hand on the ball does not cause a loss of control. So no second dribble is allowed. Notice that even if the ball is batted (intentionally struck with the hand(s) ) by an opponent, the player may not dribble again unless the bat causes the ball to come loose.
