OK fair enough, I can see the merit of the system where free throws that can't affect the outcome of a game are not attempted.
Having said that (and again I am a FIBA referee - so my perspective may be different to so other people here) isn't it possible that say Team A is up by 3, fouls B1 on a n attempt on the buzzer resulting in 2 free throws. NCAA rules would not have the player shoot these free throws, so Team A wins by 3.
Now for arguements sake on of the following scenarios occurs:
1. As game ends, Coach A goes of his head and gets a T.
2. Found to be an error on the scorsheet, and Team A was only up by 2 (or 1).
How would you handle this, accoring to NCAA rules? Do you bring the players out of locker rooms to shoot the free throws?

FTs are not attempted unless they would effect the outcome of the game. In these situations, they would be attempted because they could effect the outcome..
