Could the T have been signalling a Not Closely Guarded Situation. Which by the way is the most idiotic signal in our manual. If I ain't visually counting it means I don't have a Closely Guarded Situation.

And while you gave all that explanation, you could have given the signal and then they know why you did not have a signal.

Double Negative ...
IAABO did away with the "Not Closely Guarded" signal this past season.

Honestly without video or talking to the official, hard to know what the communication was in this case. It is not unusual in my experience to wave a coach back into the box in both HS or college, but I have no idea what action was done. There is not standard signal if that is really the question.
