A jump stop wouldn't necessarily have to be illegal. Jump stops can easily occur as a dribble is ending. Which means a pivot foot was never established.

The jump stop that coaches refer to and the ones refs refer to are different. In the situation you described (a coaches jump stop) either foot can be a pivot foot. When an official uses the term they mean a situation where neither foot can be a pivot foot. 4.43.2.b.2 and 4.43.4
