Cool It is not a delay of game. It is Unsportsmanlike Conduct!

It is not a Delay of Game, raher it is Unsportsmanlike Conduct and it is charged to the Head Coach. (Remember two and he is gone.)
My advice would be to give them as much rope on this one as you possibly can, including going to the visiting team dressing room and getting the team to prevent this preventable penalty. The visiting team head coach should have been advised as to how long halftime in the pregame. If all else fails then call it.
Rule Reference is 9-8-1g
