Looking over some very old stories, I came across the following excerpt that many here may find amusing...
Frank Lane, a noted baseball executive, was also a nationally known basketball official who "called" many games involving UK teams. He told the following story about a game involving the University of Kentucky in the early 1930s: Quote:

Great story, thanks for posting, Camron!

I wonder how he decided which player should shoot the free throws? Not only that, if he thought an opposing player was fouled, it wouldn't be in the act of shooting because then, they would have been shooting at the wrong basket.
OK - I'm getting technical and probably ruining a really great story. |
Good'un!
Thanks, Camron!

Great story. Sure glad I wasn't involved in that game!

So it wouldn't matter if the player was in the act of shooting or not. It wouldn't matter if the team was "in the bonus" or not. Somebody would get a FT. Of course, I have no idea how the other team got the FT when Sale got fouled :confused: |
