An editorial change that was made this year was to take the assistant coach out of the "Coach's Rule" section of Rule 10. They aren't mentioned at all anymore, which effectively moves them into the "Bench Personnel" section, 10-4 as Ed cited. So if the trainer can't do it, if the scrubs can't do it, if the water carrier can't do it, then the assistant can't either. And of course, the converse is true. bench players are allowed to be in the huddle, so assistant coaches are, too.
