Tony,
The NCAA reclassified technical fouls this year on the men's side. Essentially, Direct and Indirect became Class A and Class B.
Here are the pertinent NCAA rules:
4-29-3c. (MEN) CLASS A and CLASS B technical fouls. A CLASS A
technical foul involves unsportsmanlike conduct or behavior by a
player, substitute, coach or bench personnel. A CLASS B technical
foul is an infraction of the rules that neither involves contact with an
opponent nor causes contact with an opponent and falls below the
limit of an unsportsmanlike act. Examples of CLASS A and CLASS
B technical fouls shall include:
1. Unsportsmanlike conduct; using profanity, vulgarity, taunting,
baiting (CLASS A);
2. Requesting an excessive timeout (CLASS B); and
3. Hanging on the ring, except when doing so to prevent an injury
(CLASS B).
Rule 10
Section 5. (MEN) CLASS A Unsporting Technical Infractions
Art. 1. A player or substitute committing an unsportsmanlike act including,
but not limited to, the following:
a. Disrespectfully addressing or contacting an official or gesturing in
such a manner as to indicate resentment.
b. Using profanity or vulgarity, taunting, baiting or ridiculing another
player or bench personnel; or pointing a finger at or making obscene
gestures toward another player or bench personnel.
c. Inciting undesirable crowd reaction.
d. Intentionally contacting an opponent in an excessive but non-flagrant
manner while the ball is dead.
e. A flagrant non-contact infraction that involves extreme, sometimes
persistent, vulgar, abusive conduct when the ball is dead or live.
f. Participating after having been disqualified (non-contact flagrant
technical).
g. A player flagrantly or excessively contacting an opponent while the
ball is dead.
h. Leaving the playing court and going into the stands when a fight may
break out or has broken out (flagrant non-contact infraction).
i. Fighting as in Rule 4-26.
PENALTY: Two free throws shall be awarded to any member of the
offended team. No free throws shall be awarded for a double
or offsetting technical foul. Counts toward the team-foul
total. Applies toward disqualification and ejection (Art.
1.a through d). Flagrant technical foul(s) (Art. 1.e through
i) are non-applicable toward disqualification since they
lead to automatic ejection. An assessed technical foul that
cannot be charged to an individual shall be charged to the
head coach (ex. Art. 1.f).
RESUMPTION OF PLAY: For any technical foul(s), play shall resume
at the point of interruption except for a single intentional
or a single flagrant technical foul. For a single intentional
or a single flagrant technical foul, the ball shall be awarded
to the offended team at a designated spot at the division
line on either side of the playing court.
EJECTION: All CLASS A technical fouls shall apply toward ejection
when the following have been assessed: a maximum of
two CLASS A technical fouls (AA) as defined in Art. 1.a
through d, one flagrant technical foul (A) or a combination
of one CLASS A technical foul and two CLASS B technical
fouls (ABB).
Any individual who actively participates in a fight (Art. 1.i) shall be
ejected and is subject to suspension (See Rule 10-7).
Art. 2. Bench personnel committing an unsportsmanlike act including, but
not limited to, the following:
a. Disrespectfully addressing an official.
b. Attempting to influence an official’s decision.
c. Using profanity or language that is abusive, vulgar or obscene.
d. Taunting or baiting an opponent.
e. Objecting to an official’s decision by rising from the bench or using
gestures.
f. Inciting undesirable crowd reactions.
g. Fighting by bench personnel as in Rule 4-26.
PENALTY: Two free throws shall be awarded to the offended team.
No free throws shall be awarded for double or offsetting
technical fouls. Counts toward the team-foul total. Applies
toward disqualification and ejection except for Art. 2.g
which is non-applicable toward disqualification since it
leads to automatic ejection.
Since the head coach is responsible for the conduct and
behavior of all bench personnel, when a CLASS A technical
foul (Art.2.a through g) is assessed to an offender, it shall
also be charged to the head coach as a CLASS B technical
foul.
RESUMPTION OF PLAY: For any technical foul(s), play shall resume
at the point of interruption. For a single flagrant technical
foul (fighting, Art. 2.g), the ball shall be awarded to the
offended team at a designated spot at the division line on
either side of the playing court.
EJECTION: All CLASS A technical fouls shall apply toward ejection
when the following have been assessed: a maximum of
two CLASS A technical fouls (AA) as defined in Art. 2.a
through f, one flagrant technical foul (A), or a combination
of one CLASS A technical foul and two CLASS B technical
fouls (ABB).
Any individual who actively participates in a fight (Art.
2.g) shall be ejected and shall be subject to suspension (See
Rule 10-7).
Note: An assistant coach who replaces the ejected head
coach shall not inherit any technical fouls the head coach
has accumulated. However, the assistant coach shall be
responsible for technical fouls previously charged to him.
