The coach just might be the person that bitches initially about the situation which would not be just about this play. I bet if you did not call something earlier in the game that might be something that gets sent to the supervisor for review. I would also as a crew or Referee have to give a report to the supervisor as to what happened. And depending on the level, this might have to be filed to the National Organization (NAIA and JUCO require ejection reports filed to them directly). Forgive me, I like to be right when those things take place and those reports. This is not high school where maybe the assignor even cares or even the state cares little about this or never contacts you about the report you file. I do not like to administer things that did not happen or did not follow the rule just because, "No one will notice" at the college level particularly. And this is not a slam dunk dead ball situation, which I would rather not rule on without being sure. I had to slow it down to even have a debate in the first place. I do not give a flying farfonickle what the darn coach does in this situation ultimately during or after the game. But my conversation after the game is not going to be with the coach. It will be with my supervisor on some level and not all supervisors just say, "I really do not care because you threw out the kid..." type of people.

Either it's a live ball foul or a dead ball foul. You're either right or wrong. But you seem to be saying it's worse to call this a dead ball foul and be wrong than vice versa.

That makes no sense at all.

Rignt is right, wrong is wrong, and without a monitor nobody has the exact timing on this. It's a best guess from this crew, one which appears to be correct.
