Oh wow. The transfer student had HS rules on his mind. Forgot that the clock stops in NCAA.
I wouldn't investigate the NAU coach too hard because he had a very good beef. The officials had to blow the whistle to address the transfer student's interruption, which means it interfered with play, which means it should have been enough to assess a Class B Tech under 10-2.8:
Art. 8. Team followers (fans, bands, cheerleaders and mascots associated with either team) shall not commit an unsportsmanlike act, including, but not limited to, the following: ....
....d. Delaying the game by preventing the ball from being promptly made live or by preventing continuous play, such as but not limited to, followers entering the playing court before the player activity has been terminated. When the delay does not interfere with play, it shall be ignored.
NAU should have received two free throws, and then the ball via POI under MT's basket with 0.4s remaining.
Whoops.
