I am with you on this; however, this coach had been given explanations earlier. He is also a state-certified official. He was clearly trying to unnerve me (and incite his fans to do the same).

Thanks for your input!

In that case, I start my explanation with, "As you know, coach, ..." This forces him to admit:

a) He doesn't know, or
b) He shouldn't be arguing "against" the rules.
