Default An absurd rule

UConn is up by one on Notre Dame with 30 seconds left, Hasheem Thabeet gets fouled and hits the deck hard, but gets back up. For some reason, UConn is allowed to sub in Craig Austrie, their second-best free throw shooter, to take the shots for Thabeet, who was 2-for-6. That isn't necessarily outrageous, but this is: THABEET IS BACK IN AT THE NEXT WHISTLE.

This is an absolute joke. If you're allowed to choose your free throw shooter on an "injury," your "injured" guy can't come back in at the next whistle. There's no way this is fair.
