Some interesting comments.
I'm a bit of a hard @$$. I will not put up with comments like that in a scrimmage, especially from a coach that is on the field. And even an assistant coach at that! As far as I am concerned, he is only there to observe his players.
The comment I might use is "#52, that was close to a hold, and I think some other referees might call it. I want you to learn now, so that you don't do it in a regular game."
I would also tell the head coach, or some assistants if I know they understand we're all there to learn.
Perhaps it's that we have a great relationship with the coaches up here. But they don't bother me at all. I'm quite honest with them.
