John Chaney:

"Chaney warned during an Atlantic 10 conference call on Monday that he would send in a “goon” if the screens weren’t called."

From the article. To me, this tells me it wasn't just a mistake. It was premeditated. He had a long time to think about it before the game even started; and he still did it. If it had been a heat of the moment thing in a highly competitive environment, it would be one thing. But this is premeditated assault. He should be charged, and he should be fired.
