This is an interesting decision.
I've found that it is very important to have a drive team that is cohesive and works well together. It takes a couple of matches to figure out everyone's style and comfort level to various things.
As such, my personal choice is that a college student (including myself) will never coach on my team. At least, if the college student wants to coach, then he/she will have to commit to all events (including a potential worlds).
I can't risk the student drivers having to bounce their trust between coaches. It's not conducive to good drive team chemistry.
