So interesting, yet not surprising, that some coaches say they will comply and others are basically saying, "screw you." (Bobby Knight, what a surprise). As someone who refs low level college ball, I will be watching carefully to see if the big dawgs in officiating will demand better behavior from the big dogs in coaching.
