Great clip. However, the video is incorrectly titled. The ball doesn't get stuck, it comes to rest on the flange. Of course, all of us know that this results in an AP throw-in unless there was a FT to follow (or a throw-in to be awarded after the FT attempt).

I've seen it twice. Once on the front cover of the website you saw it, and now here.

I thought chseagle was going to post it.

It does go to show you that these types of plays happen! I'm glad there is a ruling for it.

I have seen it a few times in my career. Certainly not a common thing, but it has happened where I was working a game.

Peace

Thumbs up Well, something like that......

Actually happened to me just the other night in warmups before the game (B16/18).

Don't know exactly how it happened, but similar to the guy in the crowd at the end of this video, I heard some applause and joking around and looked at the opposite end of the court, and the ball was resting on the flange. Weird.

Never had it in a game though.

Ahem!

Having completed his 24th season as head coach at UConn and his 38th year as a collegiate head coach, Jim Calhoun has unquestionably stood the test of time as one of college basketball's legendary leaders and reached two other career milestones in 2008-09---membership in the ultra exclusive 800-win club and a third trip to the NCAA Final Four.

His coaching success story includes winning two NCAA National Championships (1999, 2004) at Connecticut, earning basketball's highest honor while still an active coach, election into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, and induction in 2006 with the other greats of the game as a member of the Founding Class of the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame.


And NO, I am NOT a stalker! There are NEW Officials here and we don't want to spread mis-information ya know (birds excluded).

I've had the ball get stuck between the rim and backboard before, always because of a shot. But this season, I had it stuck there because of a missed free throw that rolled off of the flange!

Correct, since in my case the ball became live with a rebound because the last free throw was missed. (And not a throw-in.)

How's about if as the ball becomes dead and sits there, right before you put air in your whistle, B1 jumps up and knocks it off? Whatcha got?

Does the whistle make the ball dead, or is it already dead? (Rhetorical question)
