Had him the following week.......didn't say a word to the officials
My point is that there is a middle ground between letting ACs misbehave and refusing to speak to them at all. There is nothing wrong with polite and respectful interaction.

My favorite assistant coach in the area knows when to corral his boss at the right times. Occasionally I've talked to HIM when I needed the HC to behave better.

In limited cases I have utilized an AC to give information during a TO. This way I am not taking away form the HC time-out.

Agreed. For some reason, too many people seem to have difficulty with the idea.
