Many times I will hear a time-out request, and all conditions are met, but by the time I signal (whistle and hand), the ball may be out of player control. I tell the coach that there was player control at the time of the request. The rule doesn't say "such request being granted and signaled only when..."

Am I correct?
Yes, and I always verbalize loudly, such as--"before the pass/travel/loose ball/held ball, time-out White".
