Hmmm. Conflicting situations here. Yes, they're yelling "foul," but if what you see is an "honest attempt at the ball," I'm inclined to call it a common foul as you did...I guess depending on the severity of the contact, which, as I take it from your description, wasn't bad.
The way I see it, the actual act takes precedence over what the coach yells. Maybe the player didn't hear his coach!
