Another good point.
It's not a NFHS rule, or interpretation, but we've been told locally that in the case of player going down, if we see the coach coming, we're to start beckoning.
If questioned by the opposing coach, we're to say, "He was beckoned".
In the case of a possible injury, we want the coach out there, and don't want him hesitating because he's afraid of a technical foul.
That would not be a good look for us since one reason why we're out there is for player safety.
10-5-2: Bench personnel, including the head coach, shall not: Enter the court unless by permission of an official to attend an injured player.
