Really big shoe...
 
Here's a scenario someone presented in my NCAAW FB group but it can obviously be covered in all codes:

A1 is driving to the basket. B1 has legal guarding position. A1 fakes left and goes right. The move causes B1 to lose his/her sneaker. A1 continues on his/her drive and trips over the sneaker which is no longer on B1's foot. What do we have?

I've got nothing illegal, but I'd be inclined to stop play for safety. Resume as after an IW.

A moment of silence for the sole that was lost.
Throw-in at POI.

Sorry.

If it happens, anyone calling travelling?

If B1 was in the shoe that might be the call, right?

Play on. IF play goes to the other end and someone comes on the court to remove the shoe, allow them to do so without penalty.

Freddy, Freddy, Freddy... :D

Interestingly, none of you mentioned the idea of calling a foul on B1. That was the first response from one of the officials in my FB group and a few others agreed.

By what rule?

The only thing you could call on B1 would be a technical foul, but that might be a career stunter.

Just wait until Mark Padgett gets back full time. With that new pig's heart, he's going to be funnier than ever.

Note: My Topo Gigio reference (Really Big Shoe) was deleted by the moderators. Rightfully so. I should know better than to post anything that would offend Italian and/or Spanish mouse puppets. Shame on me.

I didn't say they made sense :)

A few people thought it would be a blocking foul because B1 didn't maintain LGP. One considered calling it a block by applying the Elastic Clause. One mentioned a T but with the caveat that B1 would've had to kick off the sneaker on purpose, which would be pretty hard to prove.

The official who started the page, who is also an interpreter, put that talk to bed. He said if a coach asked why he didn't call a foul his response would be, "Coach, I cannot call a foul on a shoe."

Just a guess, I doubt it was someone being offended that is the reason that was deleted. Again, not sure, but just a guess.

Peace
