Is it worse? Not even close.
It's comparable in nature but not in extent IMO.

This is so completely true and relevant to officiating!! Usually four views of what is happening on the court at any time: Home coach, Visiting coach, Official, and what really happened!
Indeed. Any thread here with video is a testament to that.

I will be SHOCKED if he is on a D1 staff next year and highly doubt he coaches anywhere next season. With all of the media scrutiny today I just don't see how a HC and/or an AD could sign off on bringing Rice in next season and justify it to the administration and others. I'd bet money that he is out of college coaching for at least a year.

This just adds fuel to the fire. I wish Mike the best and I'm sure he'll land on his feet but just don't see him on a NCAA bench for at least a year.
