back court question from MU v Tex game
Don't recall the time this happened so sorry no video, but there was a play where MU was doing a weave handoff up top, the Tex defender hits the ball down off the MU player's leg and the ball goes backcourt and is recovered by MU in the backcourt. Backcourt got called. That's not the right call is it?

Since you posed the question first tell us why you think the call was incorrect.

You also know that this is completely irrelevant to the backcourt call. Last to touch, first to touch. Easy as pie (as a first approximation). :) |
yes, because the defensive player caused a loss of control and the offensive player did not regain control prior to it going into the BC. We've had a couple posts on here where on an inbounds play A1 touches the ball in FC but doesn't gain control until in the BC and that is clean, so I was assuming the same logic applied.
So if a D1 tips a pass and it then clips A1's hand on the way to the BC and then A1 recovers, that is BC? |

Is B1s tipped pass a live ball in the frontcourt or a throw-in pass... it all depends. |
Requirements for backcourt violation:
1. Team control (and initial player control established at some point if coming from a throw-in) 2. Ball achieves a frontcourt status 3. The team in control is the last to touch the ball before the ball achieves a backcourt status 4. The team in control is the first to touch the ball after it achieves a backcourt status. Your issue with the play is with the definition of team control and when it ends. Team control ends only if the ball becomes dead, there's a try, or the other team gains control of the ball. |

If its the former, just watch the shot clock on the bottom of your screen. If it doesnt reset, then you know that t/c exists even though there is no p/c. |
Quote:
That rule, as others have mentioned, has an exception that applies to throw-ins. The same logic thus does not apply. |
Quote:
As has been stated, during and subsequent a throw-in, backcourt violations can only occur after Player Control has been established. |

Of that I'm sure. :) |

They nailed this call.
Also, nailed the F1 towards the end of the game (although, I think he orginally signaled PC); nonetheless, they shot the free throws. |
