Let me ask....you eject the coach...is the coach gonna try and seriously argue that he shouldn't be tossed? if so, what arguement is he going to give? The coach knows what he's doing here...and he wouldn't be surprised if he got tossed.

The coach certainly does more than just "coaching the officials." The coach is out of his box and on the floor to start with. The coach gets whacked...then gives THREE overt gestures directly toward an official...two toward the new trail and one toward the slot who called the original T. Short of your bosses giving direction otherwise...this particular (IMO) ejection should be as easy as it comes.
