Those of us that have been around the game long enough have seen this type of behavior many times. IMO, many of these coaches are there more for themselves and not the kids. These "insecure" coaches tend to be more concerned with how they are perceived (i.e., if they are winning, they must be more intelligent or better than the other coach/team) than coaching young kids the game of basketball. One suggestion I have (and I have seen it work before), is to videotape the coach during a game. Don't video the game at all, just him. Send him the tape and I think you'll be amazed at the results. If not, he needs to find another hobby.
