Personally, I think we've been a little harsh on Judd, but that's just my opinion.

I'll add that it's a good thing I'm not coaching, because knowing myself as well as I do, I wouldn't react well to officials who don't know some very basic rules (like the fact that touching a rolling basketball does not equate to player control, thus traveling is impossible.) I would not respond well to an official telling my players they had to be behind the division line for technical foul free throws.

I'm more inclined to judge people based on what I know and how I've been trained, and that means I'm going to be more inclined to judge an official's rules knowledge than I am a coach's behavior.

And I'm certainly not going to judge a man's character based on a post he made while the adrenaline was still flowing from an incident like this. I don't recall him ever coming on here before and talking about having behaved like this, so it does seem to be an isolated incident. Y'all do whatever, though; it's a free country.
