There are a lot of CBB coaches that do that, though the first UCLA coach I noticed doing it was Ben Howland. That was a frequent criticism of BH, in that it was felt he hindered the flow of the offense because the pg was constantly looking over for the play calls, and even during plays, BH was actively waving his arms orchestrating every move.

From my seat in Pauley, I'd say that Mick Cronin does it a lot too, but not every single possession as BH did.
