But I was wondering if had gone to the table to check with the book which is still a T, right?

So what if it was during a TO?
The "bench area" only extends 28' from the end line. And, even if we give the coach some leeway (and we do and we should), there's no way he should be making contact with an official at the table. This is especially true if the official goes to the table after the TO has been reported. |

As I said, I agree 100% that coach needed to go. I just don't like to say "gutless" in this type of situation, mainly because that is such a personal criticism. If an official knows that the right thing to do is toss the coach, and he fails to do so because he is afraid the coach will give him a poor rating and/or may not ask him back, then gutless is the appropriate characterization. I don't see that here. If the official knew how this play should have been called, I doubt that he would have opened himself up for being criticized by posting the play and asking us how it should have been handled. As I said, it may be obvious to us, as veterans, but for an official with less experience, it may not be so clear.
