Correctable error?

The coach relents and tells A1 to shoot the free throws but continues to tell the closest referee that the rules allow for any eligible player to shoot the technical shots.

A1 misses the first of the two free throws and finally the referee brings his partners together and after debating it, they agree with the coach. The coach now wants to shoot a replacement free throw citing, the crew "permitted the wrong player to attempt a free throw."

Do we allow the substitute to shoot 2 free throws?

Absolutely not. Those free throws stand. I can't believe that crew would even consider that let alone allow it!! For the record, a coach can sub in 1 player to shoot the first t and then sub in another player to shoot the second t.

Did this actually occur or is it just a "what if" scenario?

Officials' error is not one of the five correctables.

What if scenario.

I didn't realize it would incite such emotions towards a fictional crew.

Nothing like a little righteous indignation to artificially inflate self esteem.

Suitable reaction, given that most of us are fictional officials.

I am the best freaking official on the Internet that I know.

I never get it wrong at a keyboard, although I'm needing my reading glasses more and more as the years go by.

Correct for NFHS. For NCAA the same player must attempt both.
