[A Pennsylvania Coach]

As an official, if I saw contact I deemed was not worthy of a foul, and it turned out the player was hurt, I wouldn't regret my no call. I made the best decision I could at the time I had to make it.

As a coach, I'd use the fact that the player was hurt to try to convince the official that he kicked it, in the (futile) hope that I could instill enough guilt that a makeup call would be right around the corner. But that's just how us coaches think!

I think you and Rut are looking at the same situation from two different perspectives, both of which are perfectly valid and understandable.
