Notice that I didn't say "I don't care" if he's in the box. I just don't notice. I have too many other things to worry about to keep track of whether he's in the box or 5 feet out of it.
And I just disagree with those who says "It's a huge advantage to be out of the box". It might be a little advantage, but unless you're on the other side of midcourt, it's really not an advantage.
If the coach comes out on the floor, or if the coach is at midcourt (or past), or if the coach is on the endline -- then get him back in the box. "Call the obvious". Otherwise, leave it alone. It's just not that big a deal. All these state proclamations year after year just seem really silly to me.

That's terrible! Any other rules you ignore???
(BTW, I agree with you completely.)
