I agree with Jeff that there is the possibility the ball was poked loose and the resulting 'hold' is incidental. We just don't know.

We are all in agreement that the coach was acting like a petulant child.
Right. But look at where the trail is when the ball is poked out (hold or no hold). Is that really the best place to see that? Freeze the action. Wouldn't it have been a better look if the T had slowed down a bit and stayed out towards the division line more?

We can argue all day if it's a foul or not, but I'd rather focus on what could be done a little differently, if anything. I'm not saying that official didn't do the best he could in a high paced up and down sequence, just would rather talk about that than whether or not a grainy YouTube video shows a foul or not.
