Question on the mechanics of the Int grounding.

As WH I am watching the QB on these plays. Here is the situation. Did I doit right?

2/7 from A30. A12 take snap and is rushed. As he scrambles away, he then throws the ball, B98; 76; 56 all converge on A12. B98 hits him just after the ballis thrown (legal) and the other 2 aviod him. I look up to see what happened and the ball is sitting on the ground at the A40. My wing come running to me and tells me there was no one in a 7-10 yard area of the throw. Upon hearing this, I judge that the QB threw the ball to aviod the sack. I then throw my flag in the air and begin the process for the Int grounding.

Coach of the A team says while the call may be correct, I am very late in the flag and should never do that. I think I did everything correct.

Whay are your replays? If I did something wrong, please tell me what and how to correct.
There is no such thing as a late flag. So you did it correctly. The opposite scenario is where you think it is IG and throw the flag, then consult with wings to see if anyone was in the area. You can pick up the flag too. Either way, the goal is to get it right.
