I can understand granting a bit of latitude when you kick something, but that goes to the head coach, not an assistant. Chances are, I wouldn't even know he was the varsity coach, as most varsity coaches around here watch games from the stands if they're watching the freshman game at all.

Sorry, but I don't really consider an IW a kicked call. Especially when it really had no negative effect except to make the official look awkward. For an assistant coach to stand up and tell everyone in the gym you're doing it wrong? And any latitude I might have given goes out the window when the coach is so blatantly wrong about the rule.

Lucky it only earned a warning, and smart that he heeded the warning. This whole confrontation after the game looks premeditated to me; can't even claim "heat of the moment."
