I cannot believe that in the least 6 years that you have been officiating that you never had to deal with this situation

A team may not be in continuous control of a the ball in their backcourt for 10 seconds (9-8) and a team loses team control when the ball becomes dead (4-12-3-c). So if the count is at 7 for A in team control in the backcourt and A calls time-out, A has lost team control and so there is no longer continuous control in the backcourt.

nah, to be honest I had just semi-forgot. I heard my partner tell the coach that answer and I just wanted to check.

Just as you get to ten in your count, a long pass to the front court. Ten second violation?

If you reach 10 before the ball is touched in the FC, yes by rule.

By "blown" do you mean "called?" Or do you mean "missed?"

I've called it in HS and college. With the use of the shot clock in college, it's pretty strict. Less so in HS.

Very early in my career I did not realize this was part of the ending of the count. But I learned that in my first year and basically get this rule when it is obvious pretty much every time.

also, its a different play, but if the pass was a bounce pass, the count ends when the ball touches entirely in the front court. IT now has front court status. just pointing that out. thx

I am with you here. This myth should have been dispelled in the first year.
