I agree partially with the Boilermaker. I think that most of the time, you can just ignore the coach. He isn't saying anything, so it is probably not a good idea to initiate something. Goes along the same lines as the whole, "statements do not require a response" deal that is described by the NFHS. The only exception to this, that I see, is a situation where a coach is making it obvious what he is doing. For example- during a time-out the coach is outside of his huddle obviously glaring at the officials. With regard to this situation, I had a veteran official tell me that one option is to respond in kind, use no words, and simply put the whistle in your mouth. Or, for a different approach, direct the coach to return to his huddle. I think that glaring can be handled much like other guestures that coaches tend to make.
