A forfeit is the nuclear option in an organized HS game. It's a situation where you can be right and yet be VERY, VERY wrong, if you get my drift.
I would have game management or the police remove a coach before I would forfeit a game.
Also, I would probably get the new head coach involved and tell him that he doesn't want to receive a technical foul for not helping to rein the former head coach. And I would follow through on that one, too. I wouldn't whack the already-ejected coach, but the new head coach has a duty now.
I've had 2 coach ejections in 27 years and both were before 1995. They both went quietly.
