The effect of a technical foul on a coach

[Rich]

I sat through an association meeting where an instructor spent a lot of time talking about how Ts are bad and how it will hurt ratings.

I'm not in the leadership so I bit my tongue, but it was horrible advice.

At the high school and college levels there are too many officials that think like that instructor. You’d never hear that lunacy from NBA officials.

Ironically, the officials like this instructor are often the ones who talk about Ts being “just another foul,” despite treating it very differently from normal fouls.

Exactly.

I think we should whack more coaches.

I also think that it's not anywhere close to being like another foul.

I wish more officials, instructors, and clinicians would be real instead of using all this "speak."
