This is interesting; I've never been told this. We know who the head coach is based on his attendance at the pregame meeting. That's it. I don't know nor care who the assistant coaches are, nor how they are differentiated from the statistician. The way I read the rule and case play, the HC cannot be the statistician; but I see no other restrictions.

If the rulz rulz, where is it?

Also, any other case plays you know of that are not numbered according to the correct rule?
