While in the air and before the ball hit hits the ring, the horn sounds. The ball then passes through the basket and the net.
So according to some of your posts, in this scenario the basket does NOT count, right? because the ball is dead at the sound of the horn?

Correct. And an NCAA crew actually got this play wrong a few years ago in a game at Virginia Tech which caused a lot of memos to be sent out.
