Blarge administration

[zeedonk]

Ok, this is a bit embarrassing because I thought I knew this. Reviewing the rule and case books for the season. Case 4.19.8c- says blarge administration on a missed shot is double personal foul, point of interruption is a try for goal, so no team control and we go to AP.
Is this a recent change? Was under the obviously wrong impression of double foul, 1 foul shot and continue play from there...?

Who are you going to give the one shot to?

Not a recent change, all doubles go POI.

What we call a "blarge" is always a double foul by rule. All double fouls go to POI. And if the shot is in the air before the foul, then the basket can count too (or if a violation like goal tending is committed). This rule has been this way for about 4 years now. Not sure what has changed or what you could think has changed.

Excellent explanation. My favorite explanation was given at camp once: "Charge both fouls, score it if it's in the air and go to the POI. Then fire those two f*&^ers!"

Not to pile on, Zee, but when did we ever give 1 free throw in this sitch?

When are NCAAM and the NFHS going to follow the NCAAW and not allow a change to be called? The two calling officials must get together and decide whos call it is and make one call. Make one coach mad...not two.

Couldn't agree more!! Give it up to the primary and move on.

I think that is a dumb mechanic and I seriously doubt that the Men's side is going to change that. It is easy to avoid if you do the right things. But to have both officials call something and only pick one in that case is just silly. I would never advocate that mechanic. And if officials would just raise their hand we would not have to worry about this.

I would agree, but then the NBA would have to follow suit as well. In FIBA, 2 fouls are charged, but the shot does not count, due to one foul being a player control foul.
