Now when PA Coach does this guy's Varsity games later in the season, he will know what to expect. A coach who has won over 600 HS games knows exactly what he's doing in situations like that one.

I agree with everything here, except for the idea that officials should be responding to anything an ASSt. coach says. I'm going to ignore it until such a coach is becoming a nuisance, when I'm going to ask the head coach whether he or she has a question, and then ask him or her to get the bench personnel under control.
