How many Technical Fouls

[Adam]

If the coach is refusing to leave, inform the clock to give you 60 seconds. Then tell the coach if after the 60 seconds is expired, you can still see him, you will forfeit the game.

If the coach is leaving and offers some advice you can't ignore, there's no rule that prevents you from issuing another T to the team (NFHS). I wouldn't drop this hammer unless you have to, though. NCAA is different, I believe there is a limit on how many you can give the coach.

Is there a rule we can cite that makes this a team technical? It makes sense, as I don't think you should penalize the bench and the "new" head coach with indirects, but what can we cite? 10-1-8?

I don't know of a specific rule that tells us what his status is once he's been DQd.

He is one of two things here: the head coach or a team supporter. Once he ceases to be the HC, he's a team supporter who has been ejected from the gym.

If he's still the HC, they're all his. If he's a supporter, they're team techs.

Either way, I'm not hitting the new HC with an indirect.

Works for me. This could also apply to an ejected player (when such a thing is necessary) or bench personnel, right?

Thinking out loud here, they're all bench personnel for whom the coach is responsible. Players aren't required to leave the bench (unlike a coach).
