By rule, MTD is totally correct. This isn't a "resuming play" situation so you cannot just shoot the free throw with a defensive delayed FT lane violation. There must be a defensive player in the inside spot on both sides.
Where is your trail official when all this is going on? He/she should go to the coach and say, "coach, you have to have a player in each low block spot. Failure to do so is a technical foul." That should motivate the coach. If the coach refuses (I can't imagine that he would given his choices) it's a T. If he complies, you've got nothing except a short delay which you probably won't see again.
