If the official has definite knowledge of the time when he granted the time out, he can have the clock set to that time. It is not a "correctable error" under 2-10, but the clock can be set to the correct time. That is how I understood the coach's statement.
I have not been in that gym, so I don't know if it has one or two scoreboards and where it (or they) are located. Clock awareness in the final seconds matters. So does peeking at the coach to see if she wants a time out. But if I can't see the clock when I grant the time out...and if the timer and my partners can't hear the whistle because the gym is so loud...and a few seconds run off the clock before I see the actual time, there is nothing to do but leave the clock alone.
