I have one for ya.
Rule 2-3 states, "The Referee shall make decisions on any points not specifically covered in the rules."
This is not a situation that is covered in the rulebook or casebook. Unless someone can reference something, this is your best bet.
If it was me I would probably allow it (not that different than another situation we discussed here) if I was discussed before the game. I would ask the other Head Coach to see if he had a problem with it. If he did not, then I would let the coach come back and take his proper role.
At that point you do what you feel is best. It will be an interesting thing to ask your assignor afterwards or rules interpreters for guidance. But at that time, you have to do what you feel is best.
Peace
