Of course - intentional foul all the way.
It falls under the definition of preventing the clock from starting. On top of that, the coach was stupid enough to tell me what he was trying to do.
If you call this a common foul, whaddya say to B's coach who overheard your conversation with A's coach and starts screaming that it should have been an intentional foul, as it was premeditated?
