As BillyMac points out for NFHS, though, you might have some rule backing to call it GT and assess the T.
But BI does not mean hitting the ball necessarily. Not sure how you get the ball in the cylinder without GT on a FT which does not require usually 4 points to have GT during any other shot. But in a FT situation, you do not need those 4 things to apply. Once you touch the ball on a FT on the way to the basket, you get the heavier penalty. Maybe I am missing how that is really possible in most cases.
