does 10 second count not start over in D1 any more?

[thedewed]

that is what happened, but when it is a 6 second call, how the whole gym doesn't know what happened is beyond me.

Need more context. What was the start of the play? Was this in the first or second half? There is some stuff missing to know what was ruled on.

Basically, an out-of-bounds violation where the team with the ball retains possession in their backcourt, the 10-second clock does not start over. They must get it across at 20 seconds on the shot clock. If the ball was in the FC, if the ball is thrown to the BC, then there is a new 10-second count. All based on what the read of the shot clock says at the time. They can get a new timeout if there is a timeout called, or an official's timeout or a stoppage based on the official decision.

So to really answer we would have to know how the play started. That is key to seeing if it was just a mistake or properly adjudicated.

Thanks JRutledge.

I told everybody that I know more about rocket science than NCAA ten second rules.

[JRutledge]

Just went back an saw this play.

There was an out-of-bounds violation in the BC that Oklahoma State Retained the ball in their BC. The shot clock said 25 seconds. They have until 20 to get it across as I said the shot clock never reset and there is a not a new 10-second count. They had 5 seconds.

Now not sure how well the crew communicated that to the players or the team. And maybe the player did not know the rule or did not realize they had to get it across (which they often don't) in 5 seconds.

But they got the rule right. And the broadcast went away from the floor and was doing some graphics, so it was not clear what communication was done or not done. Usually, talk about this in my pre-games (I am nowhere near these guys' levels BTW) at the small college level and even yesterday we talked about this situation when I worked. We said how we need to make it clear to everyone and each other if this happens when the violation can happen, even when it does not normally start at 30. You could have had a timeout at 25 and then the team has until 15 to get it across and usually there is still confusion on the teams or they are not aware the time changed.

So in college, a team that struggles against a press to get the ball over the division line in ten seconds can request a timeout and get the full ten seconds after the subsequent backcourt inbound (and the shot clock stays at whatever it was)?

Isn't that what I said? Please do not ask a ton of random questions about what the rule is at the NF level or how it applies to something where you live. The rule is just different at the college level. They have been using a shot clock for a lot longer and wanted to speed up the game. No need to go into multiple variations of why it is that way or what might happen at the high school level. Nothing changes the 10-second count at the NF level unless a state adopts the rule differently. Otherwise, the rule is the same.

As I previously stated, I learned a lot today about college rules. I don't need to know such rules, but it might help me to understand the reasoning of an irate and confused high school coach who sees one rule on television and another in my game.

OK, then that rule has changed since I officiated a decade or so ago. Used to be a reset and new 10 seconds. that explains why no one complained. lol.

Just curious, anyone remember when it was changed? It is a change for the better, although doesn't make sense you can call t/o to get a reset.

thanks,

A timeout isn't a steep price to pay to simply avoid a ten second violation?

I really do not remember. I know since the shot clock was at 30 for sure. I have worked a few leagues over the last 4 or 5 years and that rule has been in place I am sure for that time frame. But I have worked college ball for over 10 years.
