Backcourt Violation Play

Thank you APG!
I saw this and thought they nailed it. It was a goofy play, and I remembered this was a type of play that was discussed during the rule change to team control during a throw in (NFHS).
Ps: Go Blue!

This doesn't have anything to do with team control on a throw-in. That only applies to the throwing team fouling during a throw-in. Backcourt rules have not changed. This would have been a BC violation last year too.

I understand that. I guess a no call on a non controlled ball would have been better to explain that.

Not true. Backcourt rules changed quite a bit, causing at least one major discrepancy.

I watched that game. You could read lips and kind of make out the conversation between Earl Walton and Tom Izzo. Seems like Izzo was arguing that his player didn't have control and Earl is trying to explain to him that the second he dribbled the ball, even if it was off his foot, he established control. I think Earl finally got through to him. Great call in a pressure situation.
