I have posted on here before that this site is a huge reference for many coaches and fans! The posts I have made asking about situations are for those fans and coaches to see from the experts on this board. It is valuable site for many.

99% of people who are not officials don't have a rule book. Don't you realize our society has changed and the way people research or look things up is via Google or a message board.
The information that most fans go off of is what they see themselves at games, or from when they played the game.

Yes, it's true a lot of information can be found via Google or other sites, however to get anything from the rule book, those that aren't officials, must either come to a forum like this for an understanding, know someone who is an official, or have a way to get a rule book by buying it.

I have a better understanding of the rules thanks to posting, but also just by reading posts. Also, been learning that there's more to both officiating & working the table than I thought there was.

Speaking of the 2 person OOB throw-in, isn't this normally only used when the defense is using full-court press or are there other times this is used?

The first time I remember seeing this was the DU vs. SU Game. To me, it's interesting that this play isn't done more often.
