Delay of Game

I know some coaches instruct their players to touch the ball to delay the inbounds and allow them to set up the press. This is a delay. Using spirit of the game, I mention this to coach on the next time-out that this will not be tolerated and alert my partner. I do not consider this the first warning as the scorers are not aware. If it happens again, then I proceed with the first official warning and go from there.

Doesn't sound like this was the case in this sitch. It sounds a little overdone to me, but perhaps there was some background that we don't know about.
