There is no rules support for awarding a "do over" for a miss.

I agree that the FED doesn't have a provision that would allow us to do this play over. The ball was live once it was @ the disposal of thrower. No way to take the point off. If the whistle is blown while the ball is in flight, and the shot misses then you would have to go AP since the ball wouldn't be dead until the try was succesful/unsuccesful. AP might actually be the fairest way out of this mess. However if the shot is made then fix the sub problem and shoot the second.

BTW...Never seen or heard of a approved NCAA ruling that said the ball is dead until the substitution is complete. You know where it is @?

2008 NCAA RULE 6-5 Dead Ball

Art. 1. The ball shall become dead or remain dead when:
a. Any goal is made.
b. It is apparent that the free throw will not be successful on a free throw for
a technical foul or a false double foul or a free throw that is to be followed
by another free throw.
c. A held ball occurs or the ball lodges between the backboard and the ring or
comes to rest on the flange.
RULE 6 / LIVE BALL AND DEAD BALL 111
d. An official blows the whistle.
e. Time expires for a half or extra period.
f. A foul is called.
g. Any floor violation (Rules 9-3 through 9-14) occurs, there is basket
interference or goaltending (Rule 9-16) or there is a free-throw violation
by the free-thrower’s team (Rule 9-1).
