And if he didn't use profanity...so what? His overt actions of slapping down on his hand like he did in displeasure for the call was enough in itself to get a T.

Having recordings that conference assignors and university administration can go back, listen to and review could allow them to target and clean-up whichever side of the aisle needs it.

I did not realize that profanity was the only reason to give a T for unsporting behavior.

Wrong, not everybody here is assuming that:

Well, what I see is a coach talking while demonstratively clapping his hands. That's not "just talking" in my book.

Where is it written T's are only for cursing?

1. The comparison is not valid. No one is going to jail over a technical foul.

2. These are not contradictory. One can use magic words without using profanity.

3. It's not our business what was said, I'm sure it's in Hess' report to Adams.
