As you say, the clock started before the trail does his.
These are both women's college mechanics. First, in 3-person the T mirrors the L's chop on all endline throw-ins in the front court (actually, this is the same in NFHS as well). For the L, in NFHS, you hold up one hand to get ready to chop in time, while showing the count with the other hand. In women's college, you count and chop with the same hand. This is definitely only a college mechanic.
