I probably should have

Sounds like a bright coach IMO. He worded that "statement" just right, the interpretation could be taken a couple different ways. Even though we know exactly what he meant, he left a backdoor open for himself. It's hard to say whether I'd bang him or not since I didn't work the game.

Did you ask him to clarify?
Has he been borderline the whole game?
Had he already been issued a T?
