OK - your turn.
So when you said the board met and banned him for life from coaching basketball. What board are you referring too? Basketball league board or basketball officials board?

I am referring to the Board of Directors for the league, of which I am a long time member.

Worse: Boys 9U AAU national tournament game. Coach subs out a player, gets 6 inches from the kid's ear and starts SCREAMING at him. I'm at the table checking something as this is happening. I mention to the scorer "I'm glad my son doesn't play for that guy". Scorer, at some point repeats my comment to said coach who, in turn, seeks me out in the parking lot to convey his displeasure about my comment. Site admin confronts him and asks him to leave. Refuses...cops...yadda yadda...cited for trespassing, banned from remainder of tournament. Gotta love AAU.

That's exactly why I wouldn't say something like that during a game. You never know who will hear it or who they will repeat it to.

Maybe, but I'd say the coach needed to hear it.

Curious how this might play out under NFHS. We can whack for foul language from coach to his own player, but where's your line for something prolonged / humiliating / if not nearly physical? Granted, you don't go there lightly or worry about coaching tactics, but where's the point when an over-the-top coach (who probably would hear it from his A.D. and/or parents later) is served T for non-profane berating of his own player? I didn't see anything after a quick (very quick) look in the rule and case books.

You can always hand out a technical foul for unsporting conduct...remember the rule lists some examples but it's not an exhaustive list. It's up to you and your assignor to draw the line.

Other than directing profane or inappropriate language to his players in a loud manner, I'm minding my own business.

Easy fix.

T for un-sportsmanlike conduct.
