We dont get paid enough money to make medical decisions in addition to officiating the game.

Being that this is NCAAM, if the kid that had been fouled was declared injured to the point he couldn't shoot, then the opposing coach should have been allowed to pick the FT shooter from the remaining players left on the floor (unless there was blood). I doubt Ill St would have put on of WSU's best players on the line (I have no clue what kind of FT shooter Early, the player who shot is). I think WSU pulled a fast one swapping shooters and I say that as a WSU fan.
This was a pretty experienced crew also. Happens to the best of them, even with video I suppose.
Edit: I stand corrected. I forgot that on flagrant fouls that the offended coach can select his own shooter.
