We talked about it after and I felt that it was still considered on it's way UP even though it had struck rim. The ball was not in the cylinder at the time and had no chance to go in unless he had an awfull lots of english on it. He felt it could not be touched because it had touched the rim.

Tell him to stop officiating by his feelings and instead use the NFHS rules.
There is no rule that says that this action is illegal.
