As I said, I never had a problem before this rule was added. I kept the coaches back and had no problems. Coaches never were allowed on the field before this rule so I don't see a saftey advantage.
I don't know the specifics of the case in Texas but if he was on the playing field when he was hit, this rule didn't help him. If he was in the coaches box when he was hit, this rule didn't help him either so I don't see how that point is valid.
