Players team was down by about 15 points or so with 2 or 3 minutes left in the game. I thought about Teeing him but decided against it. The game was basically over. I did, however, explain it to the AD who was unaware (surprise, surprise) of the rule. Neither Coach knew the rule as well. However, I have given this some thought and I think I was wrong in NOT applying the rule. It was easy to ignore the rule with the game basically over. What if it was closer. Not applying the rule properly could have made a difference.

IMO, this is an easy and automatic T, every time. It's one of those rules where "time and distance" mean nothing.
Next time, ring him up.
