And the band played on.....

Do you have more details on this? Very rare that the offense commits an intentional foul.

Crossed forearms above the head was the signal. Foul charged to a player away from the ball. I was watching the shooter so I really do not know what led to the call. No argument from team "A".

My guess would be a nice two-handed shove during rebounding action.

But there is no penalty associated with this rule.

Rare, yes. But not unheard of. I had a situation exactly like SNIPERBBB's back in December. My radar was tuned to a problem child, and sure enough, on a rebound, he gave an exceptionally hard shove to a defender, and by then I was more than happy to show him what my arms looked like when placed in the shape of an "X" above my head.

Probably exactly what happened here. Only thing unique about this was that the expiration of time was a factor in the administration of the penalty.

And for what it's worth....agree, the officials should have stopped the band first. They rushed it, then made an ill-informed decision in an attempt to "correct" their oversight.

Or pushing through a screen

I don't know about "very rare". You could have an elbow in motion making contact above the shoulders which would be an automatic intentional (at minimum). I could also see a hard push/tackle during rebounding.

While I agree on the elbow (potential) automatic (although the FED stance on this is a little confusing, and NCAA has backed away from it, I think), I've never seen a push during rebounding where even the thought of Intentional ran through my mind.

Intentional fouls are (almost) always contact during a break-away layup, or fouls well away from the ball in the last minute(s) of play.

I don't know, jersey grabs are pretty common.

In a Men's rec league I called an IF on a very unathletic looking player when he decided to throw his hip into the legs of an opponent who had jumped for a rebound.
