Calls are made and videos are sent to the state all the time for all kinds of reasons. The opposing coach could tell you he's fine with it and still call to ***** about it. Or he could get pissed at you later in the game and call anyway.

I just don't put myself in situations like this, where my actions aren't supported by rule.

And I'm certainly not going to try to justify it with 2-3 when the rules are very clear on what needs to happen.
I think it's well supported. The coach is also the athletic trainer and it's unknown how long the delay will be since the coach, himself, will have to attend to the players.

I feel I'm on solid ground if someone wants to call the state. They can go for it.
