That was really not a fair question. The FED clarified the call in a POE back in the 2001-02 rule book, but never put in a case play or anything that would let people who don't have that book(which would be most officials) know how they wanted it called. The exact wording in the POE was "If persistent or deemed unsporting, the team/player may be penalized with a technical foul."
Wouldn't you charge the T indirectly to the coach? as in the thread I started, I issued a direct T to the player who yelled at me, and I should have also charged it indirectly to the coach. Wouldn't that essentially be the same?
