2. Who would be charged with the direct technical foul if a DQ'd player is not replaced in 30 seconds?
3. If a DQ'd player returns to the game and participates, who would be charged with the technical foul?

Just a different perspective.
1)No
2) Nobody.
3) Nobody.

You left out that correctable or timing/scoring errors could now never be appealed either also.

If there's no head coach, then obviously none of the rules pertaining to head coaches apply any longer.

Happy now?

PS- you gotta know that I was kidding, folks, even though Nevada wasn't.
