Back to the original question, and here's the "correct" answer with rule and case book references.

 

Slapping the backboard can NOT be 'basket interference' (Rule 4-6) or 'goaltending' (Rule 4-22) simply by their definitions......

Neither rule addresses the 'backboard'......

 

However, slapping or illegally contacting the backboard can be penalized according to Rule 10-3-5-a and Rule 10-3-5-b. Rule 10-3-5-a and b says, "PLAYER TECHNICAL..... A player shall not illegally contact the backboard/ring by: (a.) Placing a hand on the backboard or ring to gain an advantage. (b.) Intentionally slapping or striking the backboard or causing the ring to vibrate while a try or tap is in flight or is touching the backboard or is in the basket or in the cylinder above the basket."

 

Obviously, two words in Rule 10-3-5-a and b creates a nuisance to spectators and officials in my opinion. The words 'advantage' and 'intentionally' are subjective, and obviously relies on the 'judgement' of the officials. As I understand, if there is a 'legitimate' attempt to block a shot, the contact should be ignored, unless the contact is excessive, or is an attempt to draw attention, or is a means of 'venting' frustration. But there has to be some type of determination as to what is 'legitimate'..... I guess that depends on the skill level of the player(s), and/or possible unsporting incidences from earlier in the game.......

 

This situation is covered in the case book (Play 10.3.5).

 

Additionally, you can NOT 'award' a basket and issue a technical foul for slapping the backboard as stated earlier in this thread. It is not supported by rule.

I'll defer to you on the "goaltending" and/or "basket interference" heyitsme. Common sense would say that if the ball was on the "ring" and the slapping of the backboard caused it to come off of the "ring", that could constitute interference and give the offcials the right to "count the basket." But hey, you've got the rule book ... I don't.

Gov Man and Heyitsme are correct about slapping the backboard. Had one several weeks ago where a player shot a layup and another player slapped the backboard on the other side of the rim. Not anywhere near the player or the ball. If he would have made any attempt for the ball, especially on the shooter's side of the rim, nothing would have been called.

 

Concerning the 'Hanging on the rim', here it is summed up. Nobody is allowed to grasp or hang on the rim unless you are preventing possible injury.

An example of this is a player who stays on the rim because another player is under him.

Hope this clears this up!

Probably because I would never set foot in that evil school unless it is a game where oakland is involved.

I always thought slapping the glass was only a T in middle school. Otherwise known as Backboard Checking. However in High School I, or anyone else ive played alongside or against has never been T'ed up for doing it. We even do it in warm-ups right on front of the ref's. Hanging on the rim, however definitly is a techinical.

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
