So the ref in the original post made two dumb mistakes. One, he tossed the coach in the stands rather than having game management handle it. Two, he overstepped his bounds by determining who was eligible to coach.

In Indiana if the Varsity coach gets tossed in a JV game he CANNOT coach the Varsity game. The state put that in their by-laws and it is the place of the host school or game management to handle that situation. It is then written up and sent to the state office and they handle it fromt here.
Exactly my point. It sounds as if the host school or game management handles it in Indiana, similar to here in Washington.. not the officials. I don't see how this is any different than a kid who played 3 quarters of JV and plays 2 quarters of varsity. We aren't A.D.'s or principals and we don't determine who is eligible and who isn't.
