Yes, the coach went WAY over the line, but ONLY after TV jumped in his face and escalated the situation. Before that, his actions were suspect, but not egregious. If TV gives him the T then, it would look like TV baited him....and he probably did.

The coach went way over the line LONG before TV got in his face. You don't go apeshit over a 50/50 OOB call that you can't even see from where you are and get away with it.

How did TV bait Cronin? Cronin initiated the confrontation. The most TV did was get close to Cronin.

Couple of things....
Teddy looks good after having lost the weight. Teddy IMO is dead a$$ wrong in this situation. You don't charge at a coach no matter what he says. As others have said we are held to a higher standard. I find it interesting that Teddy also threw out a fan earlier in the week. He went about three rows deep on the baseline and ejected a gentlemen. Long season might be doing a number on Teddy... or maybe he needs a snickers to calm down. |

At the first stoppage of play the clinicians commended my partner for the job he did. Once a coach starts a tirade and is given a T, the message was, we don't run and let them continue. We let them have their say and we can determine if they get a second or not. I wish this was drilled into HS officials, instead we are taught the complete opposite and T's have such a bad rep around them like it's the official's fault for handing one out.

I don't think he was right, I just don't get the big hoopla when an official looses his cool.

Standing there and then whacking gives the appearance of baiting. Actually it is more than appearance it is baiting. |

In my opinion, in the moment, that was a case of "I'M ALLOWED TO GET IN YOUR FACE AND SCREAM AT YOU! YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO GET BACK IN MINE!" And the video shows Cronin's face as soon as TV steps back toward him - the look on it is one of complete incredulousness. He is absolutely astounded that the official would come back in any kind of aggressive/defensive manner - and it takes him completely by surprise - and looks as though he's actually hurt by the gesture.
And it's total crap. And it's never going to change at that level, despite what some talking heads are saying (Bilas's fairly reasoned and poignant piece about it, for example), because it's "their" game. I'm not suggesting that basketball officials - head coaches interactions should look and sound like baseball managers and umpires. I'm just saying it's a double standard. What those HC's get away with saying on a weekly basis to college officials during games is completely ridiculous. I don't care if they're the highest paid state employee or otherwise.

At least TV knows when he made a mistake. +1 to him. I have far more respect for a person who can make a mistake and admit it than someone who tries to twist what happened to come to an unsupportable conclusion.
