Why not? I guess I would appreciate knowing ahead of time if he's got to leave before the end of the contest, but if he leaves and I don't notice, has he really done anything illegal?

with the game waiting I ended up with telling him he was the head coach for the rest of the game
Juulie stole the point that I really was going to make. This is where you screwed up (just a little, but a screw up, nonetheless). If the head coach is gone -- for whatever reason -- the person that takes over is NOT the new head coach. That person is still just an assistant and has no privileges of the coaching box. I realize the situation is not the assistant's fault; nevertheless, he is strictly confined to the bench.
