Player takes off jersey
Just saw a replay of the Marquette game from the weekend, B1 hits a game-winning 3pointer and proceeds to run down the court and rip off his jersey top in wild celebration. Now don't the rules specify this as a techincal foul? It being a game-ending shot though, you'd probably be crucified if you called it. Would you call it?

NO!!! The game is over, the court is full of fans, players, coaches, and media. I'm headed to the locker room.

That would be a great call to make for your last official duty as a referee! The game is over . . . head to the house.

Brings back happy memories of Brandi Chastain!

Definitely agree that it is over and you should hit the showers.

This is not a technical foul in NCAA. In HS, it was specifically addressed in last year's POE's and officials were directed to issue a technical foul for this type of celebration. The jersey is not to be removed within the visual confines of the court at any time during the officials' jurisdiction.

In real life, the officials are already headed for the door and (hopefully!) conveniently won't see the celebration.

What's the mechanic to indicate a wardrobe malfunction?

That should have been noticed in warmups. No rubber bands on wrists, no nipple clamps (unless its religious).

I thought they were legal as long as they are the predominant color of the torso of the jersey or all white and all team members match?
