But this is his secondary call and sounded like a good call. Even in my pregames I address plays like this and situations that the C should and can call a backcourt violation. Might have been something that not only was discussed, but taught by evaluators.

I agree with this. I didn't see the play but the C would have been very focussed on this high trap. Very well could be the T was screened out on the O&B call too. I suspect the C didn't want to shift his view to get BEHIND the play by pulling back to T and initiating a rotation, but for sure this is where he NEEDED to be.
Mechanically a sound call, too bad they (apparently) kicked it.
