Did you guys communicate with each other before the ball was put in play for the throw in? In my games we make a point to always communicate whether its a spot or the inbounder has the endline coming out of a timeout. Especially critical in a late game situation.

But to answer you question, yes you were wrong. Don't know how you justified a "do-over."
They justified it by virtue that both coaches were correct. It is a violation and it's also true that you can't tell a player one thing and then whistle it dead as a violation. That's why it is an official's error. But, the no do-over rule is pretty clear.
