Throw-in sitch
 

A1 has the ball side out in the f/c. He passes the ball too far & it's above the cylinder, B5 jumps & knocks the ball away. Under Fed rule set, what do you have?



Thanks in advance!

An idiot playing defense.

Pretty sure this is BI, since he hits the ball while it's in the cylinder. Can't be GT since it's not a try, though. But, I'm no expert on GT/BI, so I'll leave this for Nevada to correct.

Ok, I had a NCAA official run that sitch by me last night & BI is what he said too. I was always under the assumption that both GT & BI had to be on a try :mad:

So BI on a throw-in or a pass is possible, doesn't seem right but it is possible...

Who says there's nothing to be gained by working wreck ball ;)



Thanks for confirming Snaqs!

When all else fails, go to the definition of BI - 4-6. There is no mention of a shot, try or tap in that definition. However, in the definition of goaltending, 4-22, there is the mention of a try or tap in flight.

Absolutely. I don't know why I lumped the 2 together :( but I got it down now!

Bi/gt
 

That is correct. You CAN have BI during a Throw-in.
You CAN NOT have GT during a Throw-in.

But basket interferrence, i believe has to do with contacting the rim or net, right? In the original post, sir-hop-alot never hits either, just the ball. Please correct me if i'm wrong, don't have exact wording of books in front of me.

so...even if ball is above cylinder on a non-try (in this case, a throw-in) and genius defender (whom I'm jealous of, b/c i could never jump that high:) decides to act like a fly-swatter, it would still be goaltending?

Goal tending requires a try, so this cannot be GT since it's during a throwin still.

BI does not, and it also includes contacting the ball while it is in the cylinder. There really is no such thing as "above the cylinder," so this would be BI.

If, however, he hits the ball before it gets into the cylinder, it's nothing. Play on.

SECTION 6 BASKET INTERFERENCE

Basket interference occurs when a player:

ART.1...Touches the ball or any part of the basket while the ball is on or within the basket.

ART.2...Touches the ball while any part of the ball is within the imaginary cyclinder which has the basket ring as its lower base.

ART.3...Reaches through the basket from below and touches the ball before it enters the cylinder.

There's a specific case play that's nearly identical to the OP.

Really, current or back in the day?

Umm where's Nevada @...

I'm not Nevada, nor do I play him on TV.

But I believe 9.11.2(c) is what you're looking for.

:D

Thank you sir!

9.11.2 SITUATION C: Since it is a violation for thrower A1 to throw the ball directly into the basket from out of bounds, what happens if B1 touches the throw-in pass while the ball is in the cylinder above A’s basket? RULING: B1 is charged with basket interference and a two-point goal is scored. Team B is awarded the ball for a throw-in anywhere along the end lines as after a scored goal except the official shall place the ball at the disposal of a player of Team B for a throw-in from any point outside the end line. (4-6)

Not that the rules book is without errors, but shouldn't this read "and two points are awarded to Team A."?
