HS Boys Shot Clock Question

When the shot clock horn went off and the official blew his whistle (violation), then the game clock horn sounded. There was the difference of 1.5 seconds. The crew had different opinions, one thought that the quarter was over, one thought time should be put back on the clock and the other stayed neutral. What should have been the correct ruling?

If the violation did not involve a try then I would put 1.5 back on the clock.

Agreed.

And, if the try was in the air when the shot-clock horn went off, then the violation isn't until the try ends -- so the time will be less than 1.5 seconds.
