A backdoor play gets him on his slide back into 3rd. What's your call?

HTBT, but I would have Obstruction, type B on F6. Delayed dead ball. After the smoke cleared I would call time and award the runner home. The coach giving the stop sign would not be taken into consideration. Then I would get ready for the ensuing ejection.
