In response to HuskyColonial
Some fans had wondered what caused Deuce to take the 50-foot shot when there were still four seconds left. I can only speculate, but I'm guessing in the heat of the moment, the high school rule was in his mind. Under NFHS rules, the clock does not stop after a made basket. With those rules, he would have caught the inbound with less than two seconds left. But with college rules, when he caught the inbound pass, he still had almost five seconds left - time to dribble well into the offensive end, or time to get a pass to an open player for a shot.
