Both my game and Troward's were High School, NFHS games. Sounds like neither of us issued a T.... correctly.

No attempt at deception here.... just confusion. By itself, confusion is not punishable per rule.

Delay of game could have been used as justification. The stand-in coach is trying to squeek every possible second for coaching his 'new' team and he definitely stepped beyond the reasonable and prudent line. To issue a T would only add insult to his injury. No benefit to this particular game. The visiting coach wasn't screaming for a T or more foul calls or anything. He knew he was going to win probably 5 minutes into the game - when the home team hadn't even engaged yet.

Only 4 players returning, due to confusion and not deception, is not a T-ing offense.
