There are different ways to handle coaches. One official that I saw here, ran by the coach in the first two minutes of the game and said coach, we aren't going to listen to that all night. The coach quit chipping and started coaching. That worked for him, but it didn't work for me.
I tell the coach that I will talk to him, but not if he is yelling at me. And I keep him in the box. My rule of thumb is: if he takes away my concentration of the game -- whack 'em.
When I first started working, I had a coach who would jump up and down, yell, and throw a tantrum all the time. I talked to him and talked to him about his behaviour, but to no avail. I never gave him a T, because he would be tossed from that game and suspended the next game too. (League rules)
If I had him now and he acted like he did. I would run him out of the gym.
