So if three players would do this, the coach would receive 3 indirects and be ejected.

I would be surprised if this would ever actually happen in a game.
Rule 10-4-1(h) doesn't address multiple similar infractions that occur at the same time. It addresses single infractions only. Apples and oranges iow. The NFHS has addressed multiple similar infractions through the case play already cited above and the NFHS ruling cited by Nevada that they posted on their web site last year.

If three players did it, it's one technical foul charged to the team and one indirect technical foul charged to the head coach.
