The rules and casebook plays state that there is only one head coach. Why would you let a team change head coach's in the middle of a game.

Unless the original head coach becomes disqualified or has to leave the game for illness or someother legitimate reason there is no reason of a team to change head coaches in the middle of the game.

I know what the original post said. There has to be a continuity to team management. While it is unfortunate that the "real" head coach is running late, once the game starts, the "real" head coach is the one that is running the team, and not the coach that gets to the game late.
