Before I even got to the table to report the personal foul on B1, the coach was telling me it was on B2. Now let's think about this. If the coach knows B1 has 4 fouls and he clearly saw her raise her hands and tell me "that is terrible" and then he clearly saw me give her a T, what does it matter if the foul is on B2 or B1? Him trying to get me to give the foul to B2 in my mind tells me that he knows if I give the foul to B1, she has fouled out. Do I still need to verbally communicate to him "that's 5?"
I am not arguing one way or the other. This was simply my train of thought as this whole situation was unfolding.
Anybody else out there have an opinion or facts?

Don't give the coach so much credit, they just aren't that smart and cannot think that far ahead. He was just trying to get his star out of a foul.
As for telling the coach, yes you have to tell the coach. If you do not tell the coach then the player will never become bench personell and could just stay in the game. You telling the coach "that's 5" is part of the adminstration of a player fouling out.
