Whenever I think of the rule, I ask the same questions, ... except the first and second. The violation is obvious only to the official doing the counting. And the pass over the front court seems good nuff. |

Why ignore the obvious violation? How far does the pass have to be from the thrower before you don't call it? Why penalize the defense that's done their job? Why ignore the rule? Do you call a 3 second violation every time it occurs? It's been my experience that some calls while they may be technically correct are better left alone. I believe this to be the case. In the thousands of college basketball games that I have seen in person or on TV, I can not recall seeing an official make this call. I believe it is better to take the path of least resistance here. |

To "achieve FC status", doesn't the ball have to touch something in the FC? Otherwise, even on a long pass from BC to FC, wouldn't it still be in the BC as long (however long or short the pass is) as its in the air and until it legally touches something/someone in the FC? Therefore, if the genius is bringing the ball up the court slowly and suddenly has an "oh sh#!" moment, panics and throws a long pass to the FC, it would still be a violation if its in the air at, say 10, 11, 12 seconds, right? |

You're correct. Rut's point is that if you get to 10 just as the ball reaches FC status and it takes some hair splitting to determine whether there was a violation; it's probably best to let it go.

I had a play I screwed up. 10 second count and the player releases a pass. Ball deflected out of bounds. So in essence I penalized the defense for setting up a good trap.
Good philosphy I heard at camp this summer. Each possession is worth roughly 1 point. Each turnover a defense forces is worth 1 point. So you can see why this play could loom large in a close game. I admitted I kicked the play to the coach.... And good point someone made about the shot clock.. that can help our cred big time on this play. |
