How can he make himself part of the
JV staff by saying he's
NOT part of the JV staff? He just told you he was on the
Varsity staff, not the
JV staff, didn't he?
Sure, he was trying to use his school affiliation to try and intimidate the officials. That school affiliation doesn't make him part of the JV team, though. He still has to be treated as a "fan" rules-wise. He wasn't on the bench, which means that he sureasheck can't logically be defined as being "bench personnel" under rule 4-34-2. And "bench personnel" in that rule specifically includes "coaches".
Btw, if you did make the mistake of "T"ing up the Varsity coach coming out of the stands using your logic, you are aware also that you then have to give the JV head coach an indirect "T" too, I hope. The JV head coach is responsible for all "bench personnel" as per rule 10-4. If that indirect technical foul is the one that then puts the JV coach over his limit and gets him tossed, I wanna be there when you try and justify that ejection also.
Never do what can't be explained logically in a post-game report.
