I had an example last night, however, of a player who jumped for a rebound, controlled the ball with one hand and attempted to pass it to a guard. The ball was high, went into the backcourt, and T got the BC violation correct.

Just so I understand, in your situation last night, did the player actually
hold the ball with one hand before attempting the pass?
The reason I ask is because the definition of "player control" is pretty simple (4-12-1): "A player is in control when he/she is
holding or dribbling a live ball inbounds." If the rebound was, for example, "re-directed" towards the guard, even though the intent was there to "re-direct", that is not necessarily considered player control by definition.
Of course, if it was clear the player caught the ball with that one hand, then passed it, then yes, your T got the call correct.
