Maryland vs Wakeforest: Technical

[Bradley Batt]

Bart has it right...

There are now three different penalties for technical fouls, depending on the type of technical foul.

For "administrative" technicals, such as the book being incorrect, reaching through the plane, delay of game, hanging on the rim, etc. the penalty is one free throw for the opposing team and resumption of play at the point of interruption.

For unsportsmanlike technicals, such as disrespectfully addressing an official, taunting, etc. the penalty is two free throws for the opposing team and resumption of play at the point of interruption.

For intentional and flagrant technicals, such as fighting, an intentional foul during a dead ball, etc. the penalty is two free throws for the opposing team and a throw-in at half-court for the opposing team. In this case the technical is administered exactly as the old rule - or just as the NF rule would be administered.
