How is the official to know whether or not B1 directs unsporting comments towards the fans? Sure, he might hear the comments, but in the latest example with Mr. Smart, the official would have had to be in the stands or close enough to the stands to risk the situation Mr. Smart was in.

It also seems like B1 "directing unsporting comments toward the fans" would not be subject to violation of this rule unless B1 goes into the stands.

********
After having re-read the OP, and noting the Comments section, I withdraw my comments above.

From a FB friend of mine who works college diamonds and gridirons, "Can you imagine back in the early 70s - "Say your team is in a Major Bowl game and your team is driving to win and the other team intercepts and the head coach punches the player under his face mask...""

HEY!! HEY!! Let us not besmirch the name of that fine institute of high learning that has given us The Best Damn Band In The Land!

It would be another thing altogether if you were referring to that school up North, .

No brainer that the athletes should be subject to DQ for encounters with spectators which are way out of line, but the penalty should have nothing to do with where the athlete is standing. Give the officials the discretion to judge the situation solely on the behavior itself, and not be restricted by where it takes place.

Under what is written above a kid who is OOB for a thrown-in and curses at a spectator gets ejected, but one who is one step inbounds and gives him the finger wouldn't get tossed.
What if a kid is inbounds during a timeout and throws a water bottle from the team huddle into the stands?

The NCAA person who wrote this didn't think it through. Very poor construction.

I think this interpretation was in direct response to what Curtis Shaw stated. I do not think the NCAA wants only players that leave the court to be penalized. But this was to give support to if players left the court they could be penalized. I really do not think that this interpretation could not be so narrow to suggest this is the only time a player can be penalized for bad behavior with an interaction with a fan or someone outside of the playing surface.

Peace

To further your point it also needs to take into account bench personnel.
