Sounds good. But what about coach/player contact that occurs when the coach is standing, legally, in his coaching box, maybe with his fat belly sticking out over plane of the side boundary line, or maybe an arm, or elbow, and the player, while dribbling the ball, inbounds, also has some body parts hanging out over the plane of the sideline? The player's not out of bounds because he's contacting a person, not an object, but what's the responsibility of the coach in this situation, and what happens if there is contact, maybe putting the player at a disadvantage?
