In that thread, no one gave much of an opinion because some details were missing. I think those are now filled in. However....

I'm still not sure why the umpire was ruling this was an "illegal conference". From the description here, I see nothing that was incorrect. Remember in most organizations there is only one offensive conference allowed per inning. Perhaps the umpire called time out expecting the coach to have a question for the officials, but when he saw the conference he disallowed it.
