Once play is stopped (and your partner realizes it), no need to keep the hand up.

Address the visiting coach frist before it rises to the level it does.

Maybe in a freshman game, address tell the fans the specific rule (not "don't make any noise" as the coach says, but don't use the thundersticks).

That is all fine, but the coaches are not going to be yelling at each other across the court. They can have that conversation together with an official and that part would have to stop. And if the coach is GM, then he needs to get someone else to take care of the situation. I have been to some of the smallest schools in our state and there is always someone other than the coach that can take care of situations like this.
