That was a horrible call but what exactly did Prohm do to get in the refs ear that he's not going to putup with inept officiating like that?
Maybe try getting a technical every once in awhile to show you have your teams back. Once every 3 months I see him pull down his mask and maybe yell something at the refs.
The guy has been standing on the sideline like a scared child for 6 years now, refusing to stick up for his team against the refs, refusing to hold any players accountable for mistakes 5th grade girls don't make. Why do you think he's getting destroyed now by every other coach in this league. Just being a nice guy isn't going to cut it.
I will agree. His approach is better than mine would be. Killing someone over a basketball game is typically frowned upon. However, did he not put up a bit of a fuss with the official right when it happened and then again at the time out where the official pulled his masked down to talk with him sideways. Then directly after that just before play resumed also take a bit of time to "talk" with the baseline official, pointing at the official that missed the call? It appears to me to be him doing something, not Bill Self quality, but he wasn't just cowering. Larry would have had 73 expletives off before the dude would have known what hit him, but he also would have gotten a T and taken a bad trending situation and added 2 more points to it.
I THOUGHT he was doing something about it, maybe I misread his "working" for quoting bible verses to them?
I can tell you I would have handled it differently, I definitely would have gotten my pound of flesh, but I would have gotten a T, maybe 2 and that is something this team in particular can't handle; 4 points they had no chance of defending against.
And I agree, we don't need a nice guy, we need a coach. If they could be the same guy, I'd be all for it. But, nice only carries you so far. I do wish him luck wherever he ends up. He's a nice guy,
