He starts his dribble with the right foot still on the ground. Not a travel last I knew....
The video is very grainy and I cannot see anything one way or the other. I see the official signal, but there is not a close up of what the official called or what player did.

Dumb play by defender, I'm shooting 3.

I never mentioned anything about 'protecting the shooter'. I asked if, by NCAA rules, the shooter is allowed to come back to the floor safely.
Huh? What in the heck are you talking about? Bailing out? What does that mean?

If anything they shooter was out of control and tried to just throw up a shot. The defenders did nothing wrong but standing there and backing away. That does not mean you have fouled anyone.
