So what if the official doesn't have knowledge of a lapse. TO is called, you look up and see "24." Do you call the violation and give the coach the option to take the timeout back?

Probably not. I'm guessing not calling the violation is simply a non-reviewable official's error?

In the NBA the count is not reset following a timeout, correct? Or is this moot because the ball is advanced to the division line? I stink at NBA rules.
I think it is a case play (or interp) in NCAAW. Either the TO request came in time, so reset the shot clock to 21, or it's late and a violation. Must be decided immediately.
