Who You Gonna Call ??? Mythbusters ...

A player inbounding the ball may step on, but not over the line. During a designated spot throwin, the player inbounding the ball must keep one foot on or over the three-foot wide designated spot. An inbounding player is allowed to jump or move one or both feet. A player inbounding the ball may move backward as far as the five-second time limit or space allows. If player moves outside the three-foot wide designated spot it is a violation, not travelling. In gymnasiums with limited space outside the sidelines and endlines, a defensive player may be asked to step back no more than three feet. A player inbounding the ball may bounce the ball on the out-of-bounds area prior to making a throwin.

A successful two point shot is worth two points.

OK - your turn.

All of Gaul is divided into three parts.

Speaking of throw-ins, I was watching a replay of Seattle University vs. Denver University the other day. Whenever Denver was inbounding the ball it was a 2-person throw-in. 2 players out of bounds, with one OOB player passing it to the other OOB player then passing inbounds.

How often is this actually done?

It is legal following any made goal or awarded goal (The throwing team retains this right if the opponent commits a common foul or violation during the throw-in and the new spot would be along the end line.), but probably only 25% of the time will teams actually have more than one player OOB or even bother to have a single player run the end line.

Can you believe this?

CHSEAGLE actually took this thread, which we so clearly took OT, and tried to make it useful?

I thought the quote was "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones" LMAO

See proof that I'm making an effort to learn

Speaking of learning, gonna be watching the T-Mobile National Invitational later on today on CBS College Sports.

Concerning the 2 players OOB throw-in, it's covered under 7-5-7a in the rules book.

I have been a little surprised at the number of teams I've seen that don't seem to know that this is legal.

And you almost never see a HS team have a married player run the end line.
