Rule and application is 100% correct.
In the future, do not do "fetch" for the coach. As noted, if the coach feels it's important to talk to you, let him request a suspension of play and come to you. I would NEVER leave the field.
Listen to what he has to say. Cut him off if he starts to repeat himself or put on a show. Give him your interpretation and tell him the call isn't going to change. You may even want to suggest he protest the game. If he does, the conversation is over, move on. If not, turn and hustle to your position. If the coach is there when you turn around, his game's over.
