This has come up repeatedly, and we seem to have concluded that it is illegal, not BOO. The confusion come from the possibility of the FLEX batting for the DP, which in the OP would obvioulsy be out of order and also unreported. Seems to me, that BOO would be a real stretch, so illegal sub is the solution.

We have discussed this previously, and NCAA is different from the others. NCAA presumes the FLEX is batting for the DP, that is the only location they can bat legally, but are unreported. In this case, the request for BOO is upheld, B1 (#22 Sally) is out, B2 (#14 Jane) will be due up next inning, and the substition of the FLEX for the DP is made official. Good luck with the OC after that. The DC could also pocket the unreported substitute (in place of the BOO) and appeal that at most opportune moment later.

NFHS.... once the flex is restricted... could the coach enter an available sub in as the flex or is that position burnt?

I have a different BOO question. Assume a standard 1-9 lineup no dp/flex
Batter #4 comes up when #3 is suppossed to be up and completes an at bat at which point the DC notes the BOO. If Batter #4 reached base then Batter #3 is declared out, Runners all return, and Batter #4 is up again. If Batter #4 was out then Batter #3 is declared out (only one out though not two outs) and batter #5 is now up. This seems confusing to me, I would think Batter #4 should be up again regardless of the result of her at bat, but the way I read ASA 7.2.D.2.Exception that places #5 up next.
