My take is that if there is no shot and the horn sounds at 1.5, but the whistle doesn't sound to recognize that violation until 1.1, then by rule you have to leave 1.1 on the game clock. I know of nothing stating that this situation is different from a traveling violation. You don't go with the time that the violation occurred, you go with the time when the whistle sounded.

That seems to be where you and I differ. Now if you can prove otherwise, that's great and I will have learned something.
Thanks Nevada. At first I thought you weren't making any sense, but reading through everything, I believe that what you are saying is correct. Since my guess is that each state that utilizes a shot clock (or at least my state) wants the officials to be able to fix the clock in situations not involving a try (as NCAA advocates), then this will be one of the things I get clarification on when next season comes around from my local interpreter.
