If you look at the definition of blocking in Rule 2, I believe you will have your answer. I don't have my book but, you will find legal blocking is within the frame of the body, in front and below the shoulders.

The initial contact will only help, this coach's argument if the opponent turns and the blocker remains in contact with him.

This coach is wanting to say that blocking ends after initial contact and whatever his team does after initial contact is not illegal, WRONG. But, you may never convince him any different. Good Luck.
