Coach got rung last night

Here is the situation, I am a varsity official but I just observed this game.

Varsity men's basketball game, home team up two, visitor ball, with 10 seconds to go. Visitors come down the floor and throw up 3 shots that were very bad. Not wanting to dictate the out come of game the game officials let them play. Shooter 3 somehow gets hit in the face in the confusion after he shoots. He is laying on the ground when the ball goes out of bound to the home team with .9 seconds left. Visitor coach is irate, running back and forth up and down the floor screaming. Gets T one. Then goes to mid court and starts running his mouth still. T two gone. Then this is when it got bad, he proceeds to stay on the floor for about 5 minutes before anyone does anything to remove him. Still fuming. Talking to anyone that will talk to him including the PA announcer. Finally the refs escort him to the locker room along with the home team security and AD.

Fans are going nuts for the visitors while home team hits 3-4. I was with two fellow officials who also thought they behaved admirably. Until I talk to two parents of the home team that think he should not have been rung, with .9 left. They thought he should have given the ball to the home team to throw in a gotten out of there. Your thoughts?
