Boy, can't get anything past you guys.

The reason I asked is I had this situation recently, and my partner blew his whistle, ran and told me that we couldnt' allow the sub, because the FT's were immediately after a timeout - and subs are only allowed between the end of the timeout and the first FT. I looked in the NCAA rulebook (sorry should have specified NCAA instead of Fed), no case mentioned.
Your partner was wrong. If the sub doesn't report before the warning horn, he can't enter the game until the next time subs can legally enter. That comes during the next dead ball after the ball has become live, or in this case, after the first FT.
