I tend to have less patience with a coach who's been whining all game...
NFHS 5-8-4
Time-out occurs and the clock, if running, shall be stopped when an official:
Responds to the scorer’s signal to grant a coach’s request that a correctable error, as in 2-10, or a timing, scoring or alternating-possession mistake be prevented or rectified. The appeal to the official shall be presented at the scorer’s table where a coach of each team may be present.

Does this situation even qualify as a scoring mistake? Also, could even the TO have been avoided by not stopping play? Would the coach possibly have gone back to his box after checking with the scorer and learning that the scorer recorded what you reported?

Just thinking "out loud"
