Yes, 1b coach must vacate any space needed by F3 (or other player) to make a play. Failure is an out due to interference.
Clearly a doofus coach just watching or playing statue and F3 collides is going to get called.
But I am curious about the popup where the collision happens almost immediate.. and it is CLEARLY OBVIOUS that coach was working hard to vacate, perhaps it happens too fast.. or perhaps F3 takes an odd route to the ball.
Is there wiggle room? Any difference in opinion based on Code?
(Disclaimer: I think there is.. but over on MY ASSOC list people are thumping their chests with a OUT OUT OUT, no exceptions. Too bad. I may be the lone voice of dissent. Perhaps I should crawl back in my hole....

Coaches, umlike plyers, are allowed on the field they are not mandatory on the field. OUT.
