I have only been involved in one game in my life that was forfeited because a coach would not leave, and from the beginning of the argument to the forfeit was a good 8 minutes or so, and it was a 13-15 game, so no real big deal, except to the coach who was relieved of his duties by the league. I have never had a situation get so bad in a HS game, and my state hates HS forfeits so I think I would treat it like a lightning delay, and if he will not leave for 30 minutes then it will be obvious to all who is at fault here. Too slow on the restriction/ejection, the forfeit should be last resort to get you home.
