Correctable Error Question

I think you missed the part that they shouldn't have possession until AFTER the second free throw--that is the opportunity to rebound, not after the first free throw

"Shouldn't" doesn't matter when it comes to CE situations.

I believe there was a high profile NCAA case, (Iowa State at Kansas), a few years ago in which this scenario happened. Kansas grabbed a rebound, went the length of the floor and scored, and the officials then realized their error. They allowed the basket to stand, had ISU shoot the free throw with no one on the lane, then gave the ball to ISU for an endline throwin at the other end. I do recall it was confirmed by the conference they got it right.

I thought, up until this case book ruling, that they clear the lane, let A shoot the second shot, then give B the ball at the point of interruption, since there was a change of possession.

Now, if the timer was on his/her toes, and didn't start the clock after the missed free throw, I could see going back and shooting the free throw with players on the lane.
