I would not have made the appeal as you discribed. I also don't think I would have taken as much time trying to explain the process to the coach. I have not had success trying to teach coaches things, which I obviously attribute to my lack of teaching skills. It couldn't be that so many pupils have learning disabilities.
I will not tell the coach to 'be quiet', but I will ask them specifically what they are wanting to appeal. They usually will say something like, "To see if your partner had a better look at it." I will say, "Coach, I was right on the play and saw exactly what happened."
However, if they want me to ask my partner if there was a pulled foot or something like that, then usually ask my partner, inquiring about the specific situation. "Bob, did you see a pulled foot?"
