What about the status of the people on the bench during a timeout? Are the players still players and the bench personnel still bench personnel?

As Bob Jenkins said above, yes. There's no language saying otherwise. Also, there is supporting language in rule 10-1-9--"A team shall not fail to have all players return to the court at approximately the same time following a time-out or intermission." [/B]

Say an official is addressed disrespectfully from the bench area during a timeout. For the purpose of penalty (Player Tehcnical vs. Bench Technical), should the official distinguish between a player and someone who is bench personnel? [/B][/QUOTE]Definitely - under NFHS rules imo.
