This is why I generally cringe when a coach tells me he's also a ref. We have some officials in our association who coach, but they don't announce it in the pregame; nor do they announce it if something goes wrong.

Furthermore, a decent JV ref would be able to handle this situation. The horn never stops play, and it sounds like this kid was in the middle of his shot when the horn went off (not that it matters except for the coach's stupid argument that the shot shouldn't count because his players quit playing on the horn). If I was feeling particularly spunky, I'd have asked the assistant coach the question posed by Billy. If I was particularly crabby, I'd tell him to do himself a favor and review rule 2-10 as I walked away.
