Message: [QUOTE="upperdeck, post: 3750094, member: 474"] haven't looked a the NCAA as closely but the NBA rule During a field goal attempt, touch a ball, which has a chance to score, after it has touched the backboard below the ring level and while the ball is on its upward flight. so you can goal tend a ball that has not gotten above 10 ft in the NBA. I just dont get the intent of the rule. if its below the rim who cares what it has touched or where it is going. One of the ones I saw the ball was below the rim literally under the rim when touched and goal tending was called. [/QUOTE]
