T-ing the Assistant Coaches

[Junker]

I agree with most here. The first time I hear anything from an assistant I talk to the head coach, the second (and there shouldn't be one) I use the T. It sounds like maybe you could have talked to the HC in your situation. I think I've warned coaches about assistants about once a week this season. Tuesday night a HC had a question (i.e. complaint but in a nice way) and as I was talking to him the AC jumped in with his opinion. I just said, "Coach, we are more than happy to answer your questions tonight, but we will not be listening to anything from your assistants." We didn't hear from him again. On the other bench, I had a similar situation, but as the assistant coach started to give his opinion, he realized he was going to get himself in trouble and put a finger to his own mouth and shushed himself. I thought it was pretty funn.
