Chris Williams on Iowa State Football: No need for Paul Rhoads to apologize for anything | Cyclone Fanatic

Who wants him to apologize? I saw him going nuts on the ref and never thought twice about it. I dont get who is making a big deal out of this. just the local media?

You must have missed our resident elitists discussing how this is unacceptable behavior if you want to be a leader.

Good article Chris. I love that PR is not afraid to be himself. I would gladly play for him.

I guess the reason that I put the word "apology" in the headline was based off of his quote from yesterday, how he wouldn't apologize for the way that he is. I wasn't basing the story off of a poster from CF.

I'm glad our coach doesn't just stand on the sideline and frown. Get loud and let the refs know you think that was a horrible call. Make em think about having to stand by you the rest of the game.

Let me Rhoads coach?

just like bo pelini

 

[CRAZYGREG]

never said I wanted an apology - just a little more class out of our coach

I don't think he is calling for Rhoads to physically assault the refs

 

[Cyclonesrule91]

I'll take Rhoads just the way he is. Nothing wrong with showing emotion in a game, especially when you get hosed on a call. Give em heck

 

[Clones85']

Let's be honest there are only a handful of coaches in the country who would NOT have gone crazy over that Pass Interference call on 3rd and 15.

To be fair, the local media never asked for an apology, but the have commented it was probably over the top.

Rhoads treats players, coaches, media, and the like with respect and is respected. That to me is class. I was a little weirded out by his dance, but he hasnt dropped in respect from me.

Standing up for your team is being classy. Why would you want a coach to just stand there and smile at every call that is questionable?

"Weirded out" or jealous of his moves?

 

[cygrads]

What kills me is all the pundits who disagree with CPR's actions but never go back and look at the call - it was right in front of him and the refs got it wrong. If it was you what would you do - just stand there and take it??

 

[cygrads]

We could solve this problem by ISU hiring Big 10 refs and tell the Big 12 they can keep their Texas refs.

 

[BigLame]

These same people would say there are no good instances on getting a technical foul (as a coach) on purpose.

I seriously hope he starts to chew like this on the officials on their very first bad call of the game, which will be 15 to 20 seconds into the game.
