college goaltending question

[cmathews]

A1 shoots a layup, B2 contacts the ball after it has hit the glass but before it is above the rim, is this a goaltend in college ball?

Count the basket!!! If it is on it's downward flight and have possibility of entering the basket. If it's on it's upward flight play on!!! Goaltending applies (1) during a try for a field goal or free throw, or (2) when a tapped ball is in flight toward the tapper’s basket. The ball may not be touched while it is on its downward flight during a try for field goal while any part of the ball is above ring level and has the possibility of entering the basket.

Gotta be outside the cylinder, on the way down, be entirely above the rim and have a chance to go in. Nothing about the glass in the rule.

Sounds like your case is legal.

edit: we pushed 'enter' at the same time, you must live closer to the forum server

I feel safe saying you can't have goaltending on a ball that is not above the rim.

Ball never made it above the rim, cannot be goaltending in this case. That applies in high school also.

However, in the NBA I think there is a rule about hitting the ball after it hits the backboard.

I knew that in the fed rules, the glass didn't play a part in the ruling, just wasn't sure about the NCAA thanks guys...

I had this happen in a game the other night. Good thing I was looking. I was in the trail table side. The funny thing is the slot (C) didnt catch it and it was on his side of the of the basket. Anyway, blew it dead, scored the basket and patted myself on the back!

You better not have patted yourself on the back if your scenario was the same as the OP.

This is not goaltending: "A1 shoots a layup, B2 contacts the ball after it has hit the glass but before it is above the rim, is this a goaltend in college ball?"

That's not the same scenario as was stated in the OP. It's an important distinction.

Thanks for pointing that obvious fact out to me.

Don't want anyone thinking you called a GT for the same scenario as the OP's.

I'm a very literal person.

Never, give me a call.

In high school ... ball hits glass on a try. Can it be touched and not be goaltending?
