Team Control Durign a Throw-in

Thanks, Scrapper.

They are very straightforward except for the fact that, while team control is now established when the throwin starts, team control DOESN'T exist for the purposes of backcourt violations and the 10 second count until the ball is under player control (inbounds). We really have 2 different team controls depending on whether the topic is violations or fouls.

Exactly why I said that other situations are decidedly NOT straight-forward. The rules committee definitely screwed this up.

It's not like we didn't see this coming. Doesn't the NCAA team control rule during the throwin also cover all the backcourt exceptions? Why didn't the NFHS just copy the NCAA rule? Silly monkeys.

Speaking of silly monkeys. Isn't it about time that Jurassic Referee returned from his sabbatical? How can we start the season without him?

There is team control during a throw in. Does a tip end team control? you answer that you answer your question.

The situations are straightforward regardless of whether the rules themselves are well written.

Not sure I agree with that, but I get your point.
