Too much talking for my taste. I was always taught that when you report, you say the color and say and show the number but then only signal the foul using the correct mechanic, not verbally. Talking invites trouble.
It also avoids a problem where you might say push and signal hold....
If the coach wants an explanation, he can ask for one at the next opportunity.
No need to say anything or make up mechanics
