You did state that is the Kansas interp. It is not the interp provided by Illinois, or by the NFHS. In IL, there is no distinction between standing or kneeling, talking or being silent. To quote the state interp: "The larger concern is the continuation of unsporting behavior by bench personnel."

Do you have examples of some of the other "many state associations", and how they are similar or different?

I thought a T is the penalty for anyone offending the coaching box rule? If KS says kneeling is not part of the rule, what penalty is in force for kneeling?

In IL, if the coach is kneeling in the coaching box, he is where he's supposed to be. What happens if you tear an ACL when you trip over his leg while he's standing there coaching?
