While you are correct in that any sub can shoot the Ts (in fact, two different players can each shoot one), the proper procedure when a coach disagrees with a rule interpretation is that the burden of proof is on the coach, not the referees. The coach must show them, not the other way around.
And that was the basis of my question. Is it proper for the coach to pull the rule book out during the game. I don't want to appear arrogant, and I sure don't want to make the official look bad. But in a situation where you know you are right and they are wrong, is there a proper procedure for approaching the official and showing him the rule?
