Well, excuse me for veering this flaming wreck back on the tracks, but the question was about uneducated coaches.
I spent the afternoon helping out three all star teams this afternoon. I went over appeals, tag ups, making the ball live, etc. with a guy who took a team the World Series. Then I worked a three hour practice game, and helped coaches, and catchers with "working" umpires.
Hey, if coaches are clueless, put part of the blame on their local UIC. Maybe he's not part of the solution. Me, I try to give our local teams every adantage I can.
