Coach won't tolerate players getting technicals

[tarheelcoach]

I coach MS ball in the same district as Poole, and unfortunately his leadership is more the exception than the norm
I have a similar rule, and both coaches I played for in HS had a rule requiring some type of punishment for technicals.
In all my years of basketball, I have seen ONE technical that was undeserved (an assistant standing up during a big play at the end of game). The rest were all someone acting like an idiot. Whether a technical was deserved is always debatable, but I tell my guys that if you don't do anything wrong, and play with class, then you have nothing to worry about.
BTw - the rule applies to me and my coaching staff as well (how can we expect the kids to behave if we don't?).
