I don't know, Mike. Wouldn't you consider this along the same lines as many other verbal misleading statements made to confuse the opponent, and consider verbal obstruction? If the kid was relying on his coach's verbal call, and heard this, it definitely fits within the rule of obstruction. Sort of along the lines of the defense yelling FOUL, or OUT, or GET BACK!
