Since the official knew the rule, he/she should have asked for the warning horn ("scorekeeper, please give me 30 seconds for a replacement and a horn at 20") and then told the coach, "you have 10 seconds to get a player in or it's a T." In a close game, I'm betting that the coach would have got the sub there in time if the coach knew the consequences.

In my pregame with the timer at EVERY game this season where I am the R I've explained the new DQ procedure -- notify the coach, start the clock, notify the player. I also emphasize the 20 second warning horn in this situation. And I haven't had anyone foul out since my second game of the season.
