What do you call the end of the season with the tourney coming up? While of course what he did was wrong, remember coaches are under constant pressure and competition. They are watching tapes, practicing, scouting, drawing up plays, etc. Some coaches completely make the game their world, especially at this time of the year. The actual gamr for a good coach is the calmest time of their work. If they prepared well, they can sit back and make adjustments.

I call it a week of premeditation. In other circumstances, it's the difference between 1st and 3rd degree murder.
