I think there's a difference between being friends with a coach, and being friendly with a coach. As Steve pointed out earlier, NCAA wants the latter, not the former. I personally believe that mindset should trickle down to NFHS, and even ASA to a point.
By and large, I knew them separately from softball, in some cases before they became coaches. I can think of only one case where I became friends with someone (other than fellow blues) after meeting them at softball, and that's because she became my daughter's pitching coach.
