This has never come up in my years of watching basketball but...

Is that against the rules?

I know benches cheer for their players but this is on another level.

I don't claim to be a rules expert. Obviously the student sections do it all the time, but it's incredibly classless for it to happen, and even moreso for Dennis Gates to let them continue it. Their bench has been loud all year, and while it's obnoxious, it's all been in good sportsmanship that I've seen. This crosses the line of good sportsmanship.

I'm not sure what the rules say, but I seem to remember the refs having them sit down at some point when we were playing them...

It hasn't been enforced this season that often because of the bench setup and lack of fans, but there is a rule about bench players standing. From page 97 of the 2020-2021 NCAA rulebook (https://www.ncaapublications.com/p-4613-2020-21-ncaa-mens-basketball-rules-and-interpretations.aspx)

f. All bench personnel shall remain seated on the bench while the ball is live,
except as follows:
1. The head coach may stand but must remain completely and clearly in his
coaching box. One warning shall be issued to the head coach before any
subsequent infraction is penalized.
2. To spontaneously react to an outstanding play, immediately sitting down
on the bench afterwards.
3. A team member reporting to the scorers' table.
4. The head coach moving to the scorers' table to point out, at any time, a
scoring or timing mistake or to request a timeout to ascertain whether a
correctable error needs to be rectified or to request a monitor review for
a flagrant 2 contact technical foul or a Restricted Area play in the last two
minutes of the second period or of any overtime period. (See Rules 2-12,
11-2.1.d.4, 11-2.1.e.2 and 5-11.5.)
5. To seek information from the official scorer or official timer during a
timeout or an intermission
