The thing here is that all the players did respond at the same time...at least those who have returned to the court
I'm glad this point was raised because it raises the point I was thinking of...the kind of dammed if do (i.e., T for only 4 players returning) or damned if you don't (i.e., illegally have A5 enter) scenario. I think the advantage/disadvantage comes to my mind here (expressed by mick). Since Team A basically put itself at a disadvantage by returning only 4 players, why assess them the T if they can hold out until a dead ball to get A5 in (i.e., turnover, foul, etc...). Interesting case here I think, maybe NFHS needs to address it specifically. In the scenario I originally posted, the coach said the official allowed action to continue until the next dead ball when Team A subbed. I told the coach I would do the same but that the official should be more aware of the number of players on floor to keep this from happening in the first place.
