Interesting blog post that correctly eludes to the rules related to coaches discussing the officiating in press conferences:

Kim Mulkey: Losing a game, losing your dignity | Berry Tramel's Blog

Interesting:

"Mulkey asked media to query her about the officiating, then ripped the officials for a variety of calls and the overall tone of the game. “The game started out way too physical,” Mulkey said. “I thought all three of (the officials), if they go past this round of officiating, it’ll be sad for the game.”

You want to know why leagues and organizations and conferences discipline coaches and players who criticize officiating? That’s why, right there. Because they will lose their minds and question the integrity of the game. Which is why Mulkey should be in line for a hefty fine."

I listen to him on the radio every day on my drive home from work. He said yesterday that this was the worst display of sportsmanship he has ever seen from a coach after a game.

Off the top of my head, I can't think of anything worse at the college level.

She told the media to ask her questions about officiating knowing she'd catch a hefty fine for doing so. I hope she's not disappointed. I thought the blog post was right on.

I've seen coaches say a lot worse and be a lot less specific about their complaints. Mulkey should have been T'd for sure. But in her post game conference she didn't rattle off bunch of abstract generalizations. Except for initially not thinking her team committed a foul at 2 seconds she said things about the game that a lot of us have already agreed with. And even with the last foul she asked reporters if she was wrong about it not being a foul and the next reporter said it was most definitely foul.

Mulkey will be dealt with. I'm more concerned about some of the stuff that went on in that game that the officiating crew didn't address, including Mulkey's strip tease.

Her comment about the prospect of any of those three officials moving on was, to me, the culmination of her tantrum.

Again, she'll get disciplined for her comments but based on what we've seen of that game do a lot of us expect those 3 officials to move on to the Final Four?

In retrospect does the strip tease act really surprise anyone. Have you seen some of those outfits isn't there a country western song about being a size 10 trying to fit into a size 8? If not, there should be. She's dating a C/W singer.
