Because the runner violated the Look Back rule there is no option for the Offensive Coach for the Illegal Pitch.

Ugggh... no, this is not a look back rule violation. It's a violation of the rule that requires the batter to maintain contact with the base until the ball is pitched. (8-6-18 not 8-7-anything)

I believe there's an exception to the rules specifically for leaving early that is caused by an illegal pitch though I couldn't find it at first glance in my book.
