Based on NCAA-M rules. The original call was a foul on the Michigan player during the rebounding action. Duke was not in the bonus at the time, so it was going to be Duke ball on the end line. The subsequent technical foul on Duke is a class A technical foul. The penalty for class A technical foul in NCAA-M is two shots for the opposing team. Play is resumed at the POI when the technical foul occurred. There are very few technical foul situations in NCAA-M where the penalty is two shots plus the ball. This was not one of them.

The 2 situations in Men's is single dead ball contact technical and flagrant 2 contact technical.

So this might be single dead ball contact technical...in this case it's literally "ball contact" technical :eek:

But play didn't resume at the POI.

They inbounded the ball at the division line opposite the table.

I highly doubt they don't know the POI rule, so I have to conclude that the officials deemed this a DB contact foul. We can (and have) argue about whether that's the right way to do it, but I think we can all safely bet that if they didn't rule the way their supervisors want them to on this, they'll get an appropriate memo.

If I had to bet money, I'd say they did it the way their particular "powers-that-be" want it done.
