Of course I tweet and call a violation...coach goes off (he had obviously done this before) and says its within the confines of throw in rules. I just told him to have a seat and enjoy the game.

What is your ruling?
You should have moved the defender back 3 feet, giving the in-bounder 5 feet to move back if he chooses.

Per euby's response below, I would whistle up a throw-in violation.
