I should note that I don't have a problem with this ruling. There is grounds for it in the NFHS system.
NFHS soccer has the following rule:
12-8-4 ... Coach responsibility:
a. The coach may be cautioned or disqualified either for team misconduct or for bench misconduct that cannot be attributed to a specific individual.
We have discussed the movement by the NFHS to make sportsmanship and uniform regulations more consistent throughout all the sports that they govern. I wouldn't be surprised to see similar language appear in the basketball rules book in the near future.
