Was the coach in the wrong?? Did he bump the official? Thoughts...

Unbelievable! That was one of the least offensive rants I have ever seen. Unless the coach was shouting expletives or making threats to the ref, there is absolutely nothing for the coach to get suspended for. "You'll never work another game" is a far cry from something like "I'm coming after you, your wife, and your children."

The Bump? What a joke. He was trying to get out of the ref's way! That is obvious on the video. Somebody has it in for that coach and maybe he has a history with that ref, I don't know. But just based on this one incident - come on, get real!

This is one of the more ridiculous things I've seen. I feel bad for that coach. This is all getting blown up when he didn't really do anything that wrong.

The video is minimal, but this coach has been accused by the group of other offenses such as recruiting. I am sure the officials had the green light to run with anything they could get on this coach. A 3-game suspension to allow his assistants to run the show, and some coach counseling seems like a no-brainer to avoid being banned from playoffs. How powerful is this high school coach?

'A third official reportedly even backed Bisignani. However, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Tucci, who has been refereeing for more than three decades, countered by telling the local high school athletics governing body that the incident has "affected me horribly. I have a very uncomfortable feeling as soon as I step on the floor."'

Haha what a joke. Affected you horribly? really? give me a break

anyone know how this ended? did the coach get suspended?
