Technical foul question

Posted: 1/13/2016 3:38:17 PM

Admittedly, I am not completely up on all BB rules. I did not understand why BG gained possession after the T's.

I thought that the technical fouls would be assessed and then play would resume at the point when the game was interrupted. In other words, I thought play would resume with BG shooting the foul shot from the 3 point play. obviously I was wrong.

Can anyone shed light on how the penalties for the situation played out? Did BG's one T cancel out one of Ohio's? I have read the pertinent sections of NCAA Men's Basketball Rules but can't quite decide how they got to the number of free throws awarded and the ball going back to them.

Thanks

Free throws are assessed in the order that the fouls occurred. Jaaron's foul occured first, so the "and1" throw is first followed by the technicals. Ali shot five free throws, so BG's technical cancelled one of ours.

I thought that once the tech fouls were finished that possession would go to the team with the alternate arrow. Could be wrong..

Technical fouls always result in possession going to the team shooting the free throws. It's quite a stiff penalty.

Thanks for the responses and explanations. Here is something I found in rules manual in the section of "Fouls and Penalties". In the past couple of years I know I have seen technical fouls that after the free throw was shot the ball went back to the other team. So from this

"RESUMPTION OF PLAY�For any technical foul(s), play shall resume
at the point of interruption except for a single flagrant 2 technical
foul or a single contact dead ball technical foul (Art. 1.e through .k).
For a single flagrant 2 technical foul or a single contact dead ball
technical foul, the ball shall be awarded to the offended team at a
designated spot at the division line on either side of the playing court"

This must mean that the fouls were considered to be contact dead ball fouls (since no one was ejected for a flagrant 2 foul) so that the play did NOT resume at the point of interruption

For those who like these kinds of things here is the link to the current rules publication:
