In the women's game, fouls called in the backcourt may require a "slide" or a bump-and-run, but if no free throws are to be shot, then there are no long switches... what this person may have seen is a foul called by the C opposite the table in backcourt - we know the new T (old L) will handle the inbound pass on the opposite sideline, which means the old C - after reporting the foul - will "slide down to become the new L...maybe that is where the confusion is coming in...
Rocky, What you have just described is exactly the HS mechanic. What I saw in a couple of women's college games was the C, opposite table, call the foul and since possession changed and went the other way, we are now in the backcourt. Still the calling official went table side, thus staying C, while the old T switched to the opposite side and became the new lead. As you stated the new T (old L) went opposite and handled the throw-in.
I have seen this a few times. I have never seen them switch when the old L called the foul though. Only the two officials up top.
From your explanation, it sounds like they are goofing and should be doing it the same as NFHS.
