IMO if I had a coach out to the numbers during a play I would have, without hesitation toss a flag, even faster if I ran into a coach. Then I would have tossed another one for USC for his comments and behavior following the first flag.
Now to your point, you should have used the side line warning earlier in the game. The coaches have no right to be on the field in YOUR little bit of space. Hit them with the warning early and then the 15 yards if it presists. This is just another example of giving them an inch and they will take a mile. The rule is there to help you officiate the game and to help keep you safe. If he has a problem with the field he can take it up with game management and it can be noted in the game report. He is no business out on the field.
