The effect of a technical foul on a coach

There’s one school in the area that a bunch of officials scratch because they don’t like way the boys coach acts. In other words, they’re too scared to whack him.

I whacked a girls coach who was up 20 points late in the game and wanted to start coaching me and got all butthurt when I asked him to deal with his assistant. He said “you’re going on my list” and I looked at him and said “I do not care” and walked away.

By the way, that comment is a flagrant technical. If a coach threatens an official working there, he may as well get a head start on calling the assigner.

Really? Is this any different from when coaches say “you will never work here again”?

To me it's the equivalent.

Yup, and it should be an ejection. Problem is, a lot of assigners don't back the officials they way they should when this crap happens.
