Bad call and POI. You cannot award a team for our error. or for taking advantage of the situation

Wrong. Check the case play.
Essentially, the ball is not dead and the coach can request a TO. You grant it at this point.

B1 dribbling the ball down the court. Team A coach requests TO, you blow your whistle and then realize the mistake.

Timeout is to be granted in HS rules.

And when the coach of Team B gets in your a$$ don't compound the mistake by whacking him/her

Depends. Admit your mistake, and tell him it has to be granted now. "Sorry coach, I blew it but we have to grant the TO now."

If he doesn't drop it there, I'm willing to ring him up.

No doubt, but I've seen officials go directly to the ringing up & never thought to say "sorry coach."
