Didn't know it took three, but I was going to add that throwing the chair is likely a flagrant.

I don't know that it ever did? All I know is the the third was after he was already tossed.

FIBA Metric Rules: It's a flagrant technical foul, and automatic ejection, to throw a shoe.

At that time, the NCAA rules was that it took a combination of 3 T's on a Head Coach to be ejected...players and Assistants were 2. The throwing of the chair was deemed flagrant and he was ejected - which turned his argument into a "you can't eject me, I've only got 2 T's" type of thing.

And he probably still thinks you can't eject a coach with a single T.
