As long as I am reading this correctly it should have been a T. It would have been just a team T, nothing directly or indirectly to the coach. After a coach is tossed the assistant is now the new head coach and he can call time-outs. If it was granted on the floor, (ref blows his whistle to issue a time-out) the T should have been given for calling a excessive Time-out.

Where may I read that in the rules?

JR, this isn't going to help your case, but I agree with you.
I've asked around and I am in the minority opinion on this one. When the HEAD coach gets disqualified all of his privileges leave with him. Time-out requests now have to come from the five players on the floor.

This is silly. If a team doesn't have a coach, they can't play.

If you no longer have a head coach, you can not properly disqualify players who have fouled out....there is no one to notify...he's gone. Does that mean that players can no longer foul out since they're not official disqualified?

Who do you charge a subsequet T to for permitting a previously disqualified player participate if there is no longer a head coach? The rules say the head coach is charged. Is it no longer illegal to come back after being DQ'd?

If there is no head coach, who do the indirect fouls go to for dunking during intermission/warmups? The rules say these are charged to the head coach.

Who is responsible for the conduct of bench personnel? The rules say the head coach is.

Unless you're saying that the ejection of the head coach negates all of these other rules, the person that takes over has become the new head coach.
