Thanks for your quick responses ! At lunch I am going out to my car and reading the casebook rule that JR quoted (5.11.1(a)). I was pretty sure the coach was wrong about this but not 100 % and seeing as he was down by 30 I did not want to get into a pissing match with him as he was obviously looking for one as he pulled this 3 times in the last 3 minutes of the game (Down by 30 points!!!). He would wait till the opposing Team got in their huddle and then send his players sprinting onto the court . I will have him again (Have had issues with him before) and I can't wait till he tries this one again....
I know for sure that the rule in volleyball used to be that whenever the team that called it was ready, the TO was over. Too bad for the other team if they weren't ready at the same time. I think they changed that last year or the year before. SO if the coach starts yelling, tell him that that may be the rule in other sports, but in basketball, it's not.
