MJT, take a look at: NFHS Rule 9-6-4e

Don't misunderstand, I am not saying the head coach should not be ejected, however, we must enforce the rules properly and as they are written.

But we do have the right to give the coach an USC foul in this case. 9-8-1 (USC by nonplayers) says examples are, but not limited to... Now whether or not I bang the head coach with both those USC's may be depending on if the coach has been a jerk, or if I feel he knew the player had switched the jerseys and went back in the game. It is definitely justified to give the coach 2 USC's. As 9-8-1 says, that is not a list of all examples, and you could easily say you have one on the coach for the ejected player getting back into the game. It is his responsibility to be in charge of his players.

I see your point, but do you agree that we have the discretion under 9-8-1 to give the coach one as well?
