IF the crew went with a discussion leading .3 and didn't every say "Ok, but .3 means there will not be another catch and shoot only a tip/touch" then whoops . . . ruh roh shaggy.

NBA/FIBA, yes, but not NFHS/NCAA.

Did you get the express written consent of Back In The Saddle? If not, his people will be contacting your people first thing tomorrow.

As an assignor I'm finding out two things:
1. Why did the crew pick 0.3 seconds to restore to the game clock? What's it observed or an estimate?
2. Do they know the 3 tenths rule and was the action deemed a catch or judged to be a tap?

If the crew screwed up either one of those, they are done for the remainder of the postseason.
The second aspect would then be to inform the schools involved and the state office to see if they wish to alter which team advances in the playoffs.

Yes, and that was BV, regular season game.

Update - the team that lost the .3 sec game ended up doing very well in the Conference Championships and lost in the Regional Semi-Finals.
