Boxscore says T was on Dee Brown
According to the CBS Sportsline play-by-play, the T was on the head coach. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just pointing that out to show that it wasn't obvious as to why the T was called.

As I said, I was listening to the game on the radio (home team call), but I was watching it on TV. This happened with just under a minute left to play, IL was up by 12 or 13, and had just rebounded an AF miss and was coming up the court when play stopped. My first though was AF had fouled again, but after a little discussion, AF went down and shot the 2 FT's, then the ball was given back to IL in the front court. After a couple of plays, they did show a replay of Dee and one of the other players on the IL bench walking past each other by the corner of the court. I wondered if they gave the T because Dee left the court, or one of the bench players had stood up and took a step out on the court by mistake (IL was putting in the deep subs at the time).

Anyway, just looking for the official reason for the T.
