D) has anyone had this before? I obviously never have.
Thanks ...

You did the right thing, you applied common sense to the play. I would have asked the coach what did he expect should happen, and then told him to prove it by rule, because that is not the way I understand the rule. Next time, tell your partner to wait until the player touches the ball and then grant the TO. The reason is the clock is not running anyway so the coach loses nothing by you ignoring him until his player touches the ball. Wherever his player touches the ball is where the ball will be. The only problem is, what if A1 runs up and dislodges or steals the ball. Thanks for sharing this unigue situation.
