Juulie, Pat Riley was a player in that game on the Kentucky team.

So if a team leaves the designated bench area before the second horn, they have violated this rule?

Coach, the rule says that their team conference must take place within that area, not that they cannot leave it once that talk is finished or that they even have to have such a chat. However, they certainly are not allowed to violate the sanctity of the opponent's huddle. That would clearly be unsporting. They need to respect the area designated for the opposing team during a time-out and stay out of it.

Interesting!! Thanks, Nevada. But I was right about Rupp being the coach?

Yea, I didn't word that all very well, did I? What year was that national game that Glory Road was made from?

Yes, Adolph Rupp was the coach at that time.

Another interesting note on that game is that it was played at Cole Fieldhouse in Maryland. That was UMD's home area until just a few years ago when they built a new one. Current MD coach Gary Williams detailed in an interview how as a kid he snuck into the building to watch the game.

Back in the 70's the Oregon Kamikaze Kids (Ducks) basketball team would stand at mid-court and stare at the opponents during warm-ups. They never said a word, just watched. It was allowed until a scuffle broke out.

Can't do that anymore.

CONNECTICUT MECHANICS:
Point to floor for two-point field goal try.
No long switches when foul is called in the backcourt and there is no change of possession or direction.
Team members are not allowed to congregate at midcourt during introductions.
Coaching Box must be marked. If home coach and/or home management refuse to designate coaching box
with tape, the home team will not use a coaching box for that game. However, the visiting team will be
allowed a coaching box. Notify Board Secretary or Commissioner the next day.
