The L would most likely be guessing if the ball was still in the UNC player's hand when the foot landed. My supervisor instructed he would rather not call a violation that actually did occur than to call a violation that did not occur.



The shotclock should reset if the UNC player threw the ball back on the court (establishing team control) and play continued. Since the crew ruled the UNC landed on the court with the ball, no reset should occur.

Agree with part 1.

As to part 2, I wouldn't say he landed on the court with the ball. I would say the ball was in contact with him when he landed on the court. There wasn't enough for me to declare control at the instant the ball became dead. So I agree with no reset, but I would have worded your argument a little differently.
