NFHS 2-10 Correctable Errors

[cmathews]

The number of violations that would/could also include a score are pretty scarce. Travelling for sure, possibly an OOB but unlikely, BI's by A or B, free throw violations.

With that said, travelling is going to be more likely a judgement call that someone says yes they did or no the didn't travel, if a coach asks "didn't they travel on that layup?" The response will normally be no or something to the effect of if they did I missed it. In either case there would be no clear evidence that a rule was inadvertently set aside. All of these violations can be found under rules 2 and 9. If someone inadvertently sets aside one of these rules, and it results in a score, then if discovered in the appropriate time frame, I believe it is indeed correctable.

A1 drives the lane and does a jump stop. From his jump stop, he pivots, placing the foot back on the floor before jumping for a dunk. The covering official sees this, but doesn't call the travel because he doesn't know the rule prohibits pivoting after a jump stop.

After A1 scores, B coach requests a CE timeout. After getting together with his partners, the official realizes he set aside a rule and a score was thus counted that shouldn't have. Are you going to say this is a CE?

A1 dribbling in his backcourt, just before the BC count gets to 10, he throws his pass towards a streaking teammate for an allyoop dunk. The official hits 10 on his count well before A2 catches the pass, but doesn't make the call because he doesn't know the rule. This is the last play before half time.

Can they correct this and disallow the basket, wiping off the two points, when they return to the court?

There are plenty of violation calls that could be missed strictly because the covering official doesn't know the rule. This is not what the rule is intended to cover.

Why is no one doing the obvious...

fire the scorekeeper who laid on the buzzer solely because coach asked them to!

Not necessarily. The HC wanted a TO because he thought a CE had occurred. The Timer notified the Game Officials at the appropriate time. Since there was no CE, then the HC's team is charged with a TO.

Good examples.

Basically, what you're saying (and what I agree with) is that the rule that is set aside that results in an error is only referring to scoring rules (legal shot or not a legal shot, FTs earned but not awarded or FTs awarded but not earned, how much a shot should be worth or not, etc), not violation or timing rules.

The rule that is set aside has to directly related to the scoring, not coincidentally lead to the score.
