Thanks for the responses. That's exactly what I did. It was actually my first T on a coach.

My main reason for posting is exactly what you said. I think he was genuinely surprised that I made the call. As soon as I blew the whistle and signaled the T, I heard someone in the crowd go "It's about time!"

No way this comment was referencing anything that night, as there wasn't borderline behavior from him before that. That told me he may have a habit of unsportsmanlike behavior.

At halftime, partner and I came out a couple minutes early as our room was hotter than ... and adjacent to locker rooms- we could hear everything.

We were standing near entrance to court when team comes out, and coach asks if he can talk to us. We said he could ask us questions. He said he has been confused; this is 3rd travel call this season on same kid; that he has seen tape of other 2 and really doesnt think kid is traveling. We just said it looked like a travel to us and we can't speak to the other calls.

Coach walks away and tells me I need to get thicker skin....
HAHAHA! Again, confirming that he has acted this way before and others have let it go...
