The crew doesn't have to start the game until they're satisfied that things are in order. That's the only authority you need.  |
It is not a matter of us having the authority to remove the coach, it is not our place to even say anything about it unless they're doing something in the current game that would get them removed. They're just a spectator (or a coach for which we do not determine eligibility).
If their suspension requires that they be out of the gym, that is an issue for the state/league. If it is reported and confirmed, the state/league will be the one to deal with it. The penalty for not obeying the suspension may be that they forfeit that game (that is what the state has done here when a coach violated his suspension by being in the gym).
