NCAA FT question

[ChuckElias]

This was from my NCAA refresher test. I've already sent it in, but would like to hear what everybody thinks.

B1 fouls A1. Team A is in the bonus. B1 then curses at A1. Official assesses a technical foul. Officials then allow the FTs to be shot in wrong order. They shoot the 1-and-1 first (A1 makes both), then shoot the technical FTs. The officials then realize the error and give Team B possession of the ball for a throw-in anywhere along the endline. Is the official correct?

Dan and I talked about this. Our initial agreement was that since A1 made both ends of the 1-and-1, you know who should get the ball after the FTs. So the official did the best thing he could do. You give it B b/c they would've had the ball if the FTs had been shot in the correct order.

After Dan had already mailed his test in, I talked to a couple local guys who convinced me that after the FTs for the technical, you have to put the ball in play at the POI, which in this case is a point where neither team has control. So you would have to use the arrow. So I answered that the official was not correct.

Any thoughts on this. . .Bob?
