Listen to what he has to say. Cut him off if he starts to repeat himself or put on a show. Give him your interpretation and tell him the call isn't going to change. You may even want to suggest he protest the game. If he does, the conversation is over, move on. If not, turn and hustle to your position. If the coach is there when you turn around, his game's over.

Great call, and "GREAT" suggestions for how to handle this situation!!! I cannot believe in this day and age a coach not understanding a rule as basic as the LBR!!! Although I must admit, "COME HERE" ain't cuttin it with me:-)))
