The way I understand it, he thought that it would just be a point given and they would get the ball back on the end line. Obviously he did not know the rule or the ramifications.
And no, I would not whack the coach. They are already ignorant enough, why compound the issue?
I think all of this was known after the game when the coach revealed his strategy. Keep in mind this coach was fired soon after this season.
