Planned Timeout

This situation may or may not have happened at the end of the Tenn/MSU game yesterday.

MSU player on the line shooting the second of two. He made the first to put Sparty up by one. He purposely missed the second and let Tennessee get the rebound so the clock would start. Tennessee got a timeout right away.

What I don't know, was whether or not Tennessee had asked for the timeout before the free throw. Whether he actually did or not is irrelevant, but the situation I'm sure has come up before in your games.

How do you handle a player or coach saying to you something along the lines of "If we get this rebound we want a timeout"?

I do not think it really matters what the person you assign says, mainly because you need to do what you know in the moment. I would not ever take a request without that request being made. Coaches change their minds all the time and will try to scapegoat you if you do something they do not like at the moment. Just ask the coach to make the request when you want the timeout and if they do not ask for the request, then do not call the timeout.

Peace

Normally, this is a moot point. Prearranged or not, the head coach, and likely others as well, hopefully including players, will start yelling timeout before the free throw ever reaches the rim.

Putting time back on the clock

What bothered me about the play is when they went to the monitor to review the play they only took .2 seconds off the original time. I thought that at least .3 seconds had to come off the clock?

No such rule.

You're right as far as NFHS. What about NCAA?

I think we discussed this in the chatroom that it's an NBA rule that .3 comes off the clock. Don't recall NCAA.

Am I misremembering?

No specified amount of time is indicated in the NCAA rule book.

It was discussed that this might not be a bad thing as to take the guesswork out of just how long it was .......if it is.3 each time, makes it simpler.

Ahh and this is where officiating FIBA has an upside. No live ball timeouts, all timeouts must be directed to the table by the coach during dead ball situations.

Live ball timeouts are such a part of our game here, I'd hate to lose them.
