Hard to watch Edey play. Those shoulder drop clear outs, forearm pushes, backing into the basket are just ugly basketball to me.

It humors me that media pundits were like, "muh, Tennessee is so 'physical', myah."

Meanwhile Edey is beating a dude with a 2x4 and drawing a foul in the process.

I think Article 2 is the relevant section you will be interested in.

Section 9. Three Seconds in the Lane



Art. 1. The three-second lane is the area in the frontcourt that is bounded by and includes the end line, the free-throw lane lines and the free-throw line, and includes such lines.



Art. 2. It is a violation for a player to have any part of the body remain in the three-second lane for more than three consecutive seconds while the ball is in control of that player's team in his frontcourt.



a. The three-second violation rule is not in effect when a team is in control of the ball for a throw-in.



Art. 3. The three-second count is suspended when a player who, having been in the three-second lane for less than three seconds, dribbles or moves in immediately to try for field goal. The player shall not pass the ball instead of trying for goal. In this case, it is a violation when a player exceeds three seconds in the lane and there is no try for goal.



NCAA 3-Seconds Issue of Concern



The Rules Committee is concerned with uncalled three-second violations. The basis for this concerr is that these uncalled infractions provide a distinct advantage for the offensive team



As a reminder, a player is not permitted to have any part of his body in the three-second lane for more than three consecutive seconds while the ball is in control of his team in his front court. (Exception 9-9.1.a).



A three second count shall be suspended when a player who has been in the lane for fewer than three seconds has made a conscientious effort to leave the lane, usually by taking the shortest distance out of the area. When the player decides not to leave the area and has been in the lane for more than three seconds, he has committed a violation.



When a player, who has been in the lane for fewer than three seconds, immediately dribbles or makes a move to try for a goal, the three second count shall be suspended to allow for the completion of the try. However, when the player passes the ball or aborts his try for goal, the suspended count shall continue. When that playe is in the lane for more than three seconds, a violation has been committed.

Why is Uconns big living at the top of the key.
Rarely seems to be near the basket on offense 🤷

This is not a quote but a summary of the rule.

It stipulates that a player should not stay in their free-throw lane — the area between the end line and the farther edge of the free-throw line — for more than three consecutive seconds while their team controls the ball in the frontcourt. This rule also applies even if only one foot of the player is touching the lane boundary, as the line is considered part of the lane. Furthermore, all lines marking the free-throw lane — except for the lane-space marks — are also taken to be part of the lane.

I am not a smart man but Edey having his foot in the lane that entire possession while in the front court is 3 seconds correct?

First - that pick was a foul on Edey.

Second, I could see Edey getting tired. They in turn took him out.

Last, they said you have to make Edey work on defense. I've said that. You can't let the guy rest on defense not challenging him.
