Media timeouts (times out?) NCAA

[TriggerMN]

If the under 4 media time out is not taken because of no stoppage of play, it is not made up.

However, if the under 12 media time out, for instance, does not occur until 7:45 remains, the time out is taken then. The next whistle after that will begin the under 8 media time out, even if an inbounds pass is tipped back out of bounds.


Also in the last couple of years in some games, the first 30 second time out called for in the 2nd half has been lengthened to a full for media purposes. You may see the official at the table signaling a 30, then going directly to the full signal, and then pointing to the timer.
