After the IP call...

Does either the ASA or NFHS rule book address charging a conference when this happens ?

ASA :
Rule 1 - Charged Conference

Also, ASA RS 9-C. Since the TIME OUT was called by the umpire for a discussion with the player/coach, it would be pretty OOO to charge a conference here, IMO. Once the discussion with the official is over, and the umpire is ready to resume, if the DC wants to continue discussing things with his player, THEN maybe a charged conference, but I'd still let the coach know that if he continues, I'll have to charge a conference. IOW, if this whole thing ends in a charged conference, it will be the coach who chooses to make it such, not me.

I'm not disagreeing. I visualize the scenario as:
BU: IP
F1: What did I do?
BU tells F1, then returns to play.
DC: Blue, what did she do?
BU tells DC.
DC: Can I talk to my F1 about this?
BU: Sure coach, but it'll cost you a conference.

At that point, I've already informed F1 and DC about the infraction. If DC wants to talk to F1, I'm charging a conference. I don't see how RS 9C gets me out of not charging it in this situation.

I will answer whoever asks (coach or player only) and then will accompany the coach to the circle if he/she goes, telling him/her that I'm avoiding a charged conference, but to talk only about the IP.

But there's no basis whatsoever for letting the coach talk to the pitcher about the illegal pitch without a charged conference.

Is there a basis for the player talking to the umpire?

Is there a basis for the coach talking to the umpire?

Is there a basis for the player AND the coach talking to the umpire?

Don't OOO this. You're not going to have a serious outbreak of intentional IPs in order to get a free conference.
