As far as the net goes, an official should never, ever jump up to get the net. There have been officials hurt (ACL) doing this and it doesn't have to happen. Just use the ball to do it, if you really want it down.

I don't personally have any problems with throwing a coach out. However, where were your partners during all of this? Can you go over the sequence of tossing 3 coaches? I'm just curious as to what your partners were doing as far as the two of them issuing Ts or if you had to be the bad guy all day. If the coaches did say what you said maybe they should have been gone with one T. If you counted to 6 and didn't call a violation I don't see anything wrong except your position on the floor. You also could have got the ball and just waited for the player to tie the shoe before you started the count. Either way, the player tied the shoe and you didn't have a violation. What was the exchange between you and the coach before the T(s)? Sounds kind of unreasonable to me given the fact that his team wasn't penalized at all.
