... that if I'm the official:

A) I have illegal contact
B) I put air in the whistle
C) Horn sounds after foul occurs
D) When I look I see 0:00 on clock, but know that the foul occurred prior to horn.

So, I know that a foul occurred before period ended, but I do not have definite knowledge of how much time was on the clock. Ergo I will put no time back on the clock, but will enforce the foul. In the OP that means sending player to the line for one-and-one with lane cleared.

I guess its that 'definite knowledge' clause (seasonal reference?) which allows for the discrepancy -- that the foul had to OCCUR with time remaining, but since the amount of time remaining was unknown to officials it cannot be put back.

This is good...I lerned me sumpin'.
