Last night in the Oklahoma/O-State Basketball game Ebe Ere
dove for a ball going out of bounds. While in mid air he called and was granted a time out. In NCAA this may be legal but is it in high school. I thought if there was an immenent change in possession I thought ( in HS) that you didn't grant a time out. |

The "imminent change of possession" rule used to be that you could't grant a team's TO request if they had a count against 'em and had used up 80% of the count.In other words if you hit 4 on a 5-second closely guarded count or throw-in count,or 8 on a 10-second backcourt count,you wouldn't grant a TO request.You just kept counting until there was a violation,or the team managed to avoid the violation(rare).When the rule first came in,I once asked a renowned rules interpreter what 80% of a 3-second count was.He thought about it for a minute,and then called me an a$$hole.

It was not an "imminent change of possession", it was an "imminent change of status." When the count got to 80% of a five or ten second count, a team could not be granted a time out, because the ball was about to undergo an imminent change of status. Imminent change of status meant that if the player or team in possession (throw-in) or control (live ball on the court) did not comply with the rule governing the particular count involved, the ball would become dead as a result of the violation by the player or team with the ball.
