I say yes.
NFHS rule 3-5-2a states specifically that it must be the head coach. In addition the press release by NFHS covers the assistant coach scenario. (see url below)

http://www.nfhs.org/scriptcontent/va...on&head=FB.cfm

If the head coach is D'Qd - tough. He should learn to behave.
I was wrong. After looking in the 04 casebook, this specific instance is covered. Since the head coach is DQ'd, a "new" head coach shall be designated and thus satisfies the requirement of the rule. This is addressed in section 1, section 10.

I apologize for the bad information.
