Now it's my turn to wipe off my screen.

BTW, Syracuse just barely got by Rutgers. See the game?

et encore:

Same answer as last week, mainly because the case book hasn't changed since then.

No violation. Case book play 9.9.1SitC(b).

Yup. Damn, I was hoping that Rutgers woulda nailed 'em too. Love to see Willie the Whiner lose.

Me too, they were up big first half, SU came out strong second half. RU had their chances in the last minute, lots of offensive reounds.

You getting OK state at OU? 19-2, at the 12:40 mark

Thanks. I agree.
 

"No violation. Case book play 9.9.1SitC(b)."

I think the rule is written badly and/or the situation is rather singular, using the issue of player location independently of ball location, which is not the case in other, allied rules.

If you can get CCSU at Monmouth (NEC) check it out, Jackie Loube (IAABO head honcho) is working that game.

Are you sure? How about this play?

A1 is trapped on the sideline, in the FC. She leaps and attempts to throw the ball off B1. The ball goes off B1 but doesn't go OOB. Instead, it bounces toward the BC. A2 chases the ball, steps into the BC and grabs the ball while it was still in the FC. The ball was never in the BC, until A2 touches it? Violation?

Big East - toughest conference in the country to win a game. I've been crying in my beer oover the fortunes of my PC friars. Lost to Villanova in OT without starting PG due to flu, drops a 4 point game to Cuse then has to play Rutgers at their place and loses from foul line (23 points vs 7 points). BC this Wed. It doesn't get any easier.

Yes, no loss of team control, so it is the same thing as A2 holding the ball and stepping into the backcourt.

Okay.

So how is this different than the original play?

It's no different at all. B was the last player to touch the ball while it was in the frontcourt.

I know I'm going to be sorry I posted this, I'm always wrong when I think too much.

Isn't the ball in the FC when A2 touches it?

The ball is in the backcourt when A2 touches it. Or tbuches it. Whichever. :) It was in the frontcourt before A2 touched it. But it's still not a violation because B was the last to touch it in the frontcourt.

That case play has the ball in team A's control going FROM the back court to the FC, touched by B, back to the back court.

This play has the ball in team A's control IN the FC, touched by B, but the ball still has FC status until it touches A2 in the BC, VERY different than the case play.
