Gotta go with the experts. I'd be foolish not to.

So, false is correct.

Still confused by the IAABO answer wording (true or false), but who cares? Play on.

I should have stuck to only reading the NFHS section of the IAABO Inside The Lines bulletin, as I usually do.

I always avoid reading the FIBA section of the bulletin, I should probably also stay away from the NCAAM, and NCAAW, sections as well, staying in my lane.

.

There ARE situations where the shot clock is turned back on (and set to 20). The OP is NOT one of those. Leave the shot clock off in the OP. So FALSE is correct.

Ruling: ... Turn the shot clock off. Otherwise, Team A would never get their full 30 seconds that they are entitled to by rule.

Thank you.

That's what I thought at first but became distracted as the thread progressed (posts alluding to the shot clock being turned back on and set to 20 seconds).

No need for any further explanation (there are situations where the shot clock is turned back on and set to 20), it would probably confuse me more, and like JRutledge alluded to, since NCAA shot clocks are only used in Connecticut private prep school varsity games, and I only "limp" through subvarsity (mostly middle school and freshman) games at this point in my career, and since Connecticut public and Catholic schools currently don't use shot clocks (nor do we know the exact shot clock rules these schools will use in the future, if there is a future), there is no pressing need for me to fully understand NCAA shot clock rules.

Next time I have an NCAA shot clock rule question about a college game that I watch on television, or see live, I'll come to you college guys for an answer.
