I wonder if there is basis for questioning the premise, here, that the shot clock MUST be reset after a technical foul. I know the book says reset "after a foul," but think about it: We resume the game AT THE POINT OF INTERRUPTION. To me, and several other college officials I checked with, nothing changes from the time of the "T" to the time of resuming play--you simply have a free throw, then take up where you left off, shot clock included. I'm betting that the "point of interruption" procedure takes precedence over the resetting of the shot clock. And that certainly makes sense in terms of being able to avoid an unintended advantage to the offending team as Jamie described.
