Using the monitor on shot clock violation

Even if Hightower didn't know it at the time, the perceived SCV is an IW.

If so, then sticking with the SCV is an error. Either give the ball to the same team if there was team possession, or use the arrow for the IW.

Or am I missing something?

No, all officials are can call a shot clock violation if it is seen.

I've seen them review shot clock situations at least twice in the MVC tournament this weekend. Granted, they were checking to see if the ball hit the rim so they could reset or not. In the one last night, the clock didn't reset and they stopped play to review it, but saw that it did hit the rim, so they reset it. Today, the operator reset it after a shot but the shot didn't hit the rim, so after review they left it at 18 which is where it was when the offensive player caught the ball on the rebound.

I believe that those two are cases of timing errors by the shot clock operator and the monitor can be used to fix that. The officials make the decision on the court that the ball did or did not contact the ring and then go to the monitor to see what the proper setting should be for the clock. They are not looking at the monitor to see if the ball contacted the ring.

My understanding of the NCAA rule is that shot clock violations are NOT reviewable except very near the end of a half or overtime period.
