You know, this isn't about calling or not calling the three second violation. Doesn't really matter to me if the 63" player pulled two sticks out of his (probably fairly small) pockets and sat down in the lane and started a campfire.
It's about saying too much to a coach.
I didn't see a question in the OP. I'm guessing the coach was hollering for 3-seconds. Why even have the conversation? Simply let him go on thinking you missed it and keep the game going.
If he asks the question politely, tell him you didn't have him in there too long and that you'll look for it in the future. Then don't change anything.
