Could Wright State have avoided disaster with shot clock violations?

A few nights ago one of the wildest comebacks I’ve ever seen in college sports occurred in the Horizon League conference tournament when 8th-seeded Milwaukee rallied back and defeated 2nd-seeded Wright State in overtime in the semifinals after falling behind by 24 points with 6:26 left in the game.

None of what you just read is a typo.

That’s right (wright?). In six minutes and twenty-six seconds one of the best teams in the Horizon League, who was widely dubbed to win the Horizon League tournament, blew the largest lead of the entire 2021 college basketball season to 9-11 (8-10) Milwaukee.
