Be sure and report this behavior to your assignor and your state. It's poor form, unprofessional, and manifests what is probably an instinctual desire to blame the refs when his team loses.

I tend to trust my instincts. My initial reaction was to agree with byron. Then when I read Snaqwells post it was a reasoned and measured response as most of his are.
However, as I thought about this situation, I started to think (dangerous I know).
Everyone in that gym knows who that coach is. He should be held to a higher standard than some student or fan. Toss him. I'm not sure whether he can be banned from the Varsity game (if its next) or not, since he wasn't ejected as bench personnel. Thats probbly up to the AD or principal. I would not only file a report with the assignor (in Northern Ohio, assignors serve as league commissioners) but also with the state association, in Ohio that would be the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA). Let them feel free to assess any penalties due him.
