Plenty of T's on players for cursing, but never anything flagrant or even close that I can remember.

In 8 years, I have called 2 flagrant fouls on players. One in a GJV game when a player literally threw a punch in a held ball situation. The other in a BJV game when a player driving to the basket was pushed in the back while he was in the air for a layup. he was pushed so hard he hit the wall 5 feet behind the end line.
I have ejected one coach in my career. It wasn't a flagarant, although it could've been so. But it was his 2d T so it was effective non the less. The coach yelled to my partner
after the final horn as we were running off the court "You guys f---ing suck." When my partner told me what he said it was a pleasant short walk back to his bench to come up to him and assess him the T. My words were as follows, "Coach,since we have not left the visual confines of the floor, I am going to assess you a T for your outburst at my partner. Enjoy your vacation."
