I agreed with him, that the new rules as written, seem to say he is correct. But, can I tell him next time, that Snaqwells said the committee said they intended it to only apply to fouls? Will he believe me? Who is correct?

Snaqwells is correct. This is legal. There's a nice thread where this same exact play was called in a Michigan State game. So even some of the college officials can mess it up.
