Indirect TFs roll over to AC?

I agree that whoever takes over doesn't get a coaching box, but I've never read that anywhere except here, have I? As for indirects charged to somebody else after an ejection, I can honestly say it has never even crossed my mind, but I'm fairly certain it is not in the books anywhere, either. As a rule, we treat ACs as non-people, so if upon being thrust into the spotlight through none of his own doing, he has no possibility of inheriting all the HC privileges, I'm not sure it's fair to give him all the HC penalties.

Show me where they even define head coach and who that is. There is only ONE coach and without a coach there is no game. The "assistants" are really undefined. They are just bench personnel....until the head coach is ejected.
