A couple things:
1. The NCAA made it a point this year that illegal pitches are to be called and "better" umpires are calling it. I was in Florida the first week of March for the Rebel Spring Games and by the mid week the NCAA had called the tourmement director saying your umpires are calling the illegal pitches and the pitchers are adjusting...Good Job.
2. Can we really trust coaches when they tell what happened earlier in the year...NO. But it may have happened the way he said.
3. According to the NCAA Assistant Coaches down on the list of getting leway for there action. It starts with fans, Head Coaches then Assistant Coaches.
I believe that the Assistant Coach that you described went too far and should be gone, but it is still a judgement call.
