CTT was clearly trying to change the flow of the game.  South Carolina had been slowly climbing back in, and had taken the lead.
Her team had just scored (so they didn't lose a possession too).  She called a time out, walked out to the middle of the floor and pointed to ref Lisa Mattingly.  There was no room for anything other than a T.  (By the way, she was complaining about blatant pushing with two hands by a defender who was completely face guarding.)

I expect the coach and ref are very familiar with each other, since Mattingly officiates Stanford games often.  I don't know whether they are respectful and know this is part of the game, or whether there is something behind this.  I expect the former.

A good game by ASU.  If they had won, a somewhat disappointing season would completely turn around.  Frankly, I was surprised how well they did.  Yes, South Carolina is  hobbled.  CTT has shown a chink in SC's team now.
