FT situation

[Johnny Ringo]

Player at the line to shoot two free throws. Lead official bounces ball to shooter and he begins his try. With the ball in flight coach from team shooting free throw barks out to Trail official that one of the bottom slots for the defensive team is not occupied. Official immediately says just because you see it does not mean we have to call and we did not see it. They never got together to discuss the were informed while ball is in flight. And continue there was nothing they can do about it.

Just wanted to hear a few of your thoughts on this and what their options could have been. They said they had none.
