Personally I think if you're going to allow a coach to have a heated discussion with you then touching your arm or shoulder is not outside the realm of normal impassioned communication. Obviously if you yank someone or punch them, the you should be removed from the game and/or lose your job.
You have set up an impossible situation. He grabbed the ref's arm. Exactly how hard does he get to grab an arm before he gets tossed. Surely you see the problem there...

I can't stand both of them, Joey and Jesse. Jesse was livid that we were EVEN in the CFP, why ask him whose going to win.

On another note, Richt should be gone. Goes back to the horrible refs in this bowl season. A kid get kicks out for rejecting a refs help, but coach can grab and push ref and stays in. Horrible!

yeah, and that player ended up in the locker room. richt's was much more egregious than the uk players.
I don't disagree with you - I am just glad that Richt wasn't tossed. Did he deserve it? Yes, by rule he did. But would the game be better for it? No, it would not. He will probably be fined, but it won't hurt his team.

and that was his second contact. he had already shoulder bumped the guy, that's what got the flag.

It may not be over. The flag was thrown and it is still possible Richt is out when they announce the penalty after the half.

I thought Galloway was actually more sane. I get that he's an tOSU alum and his arguments I thought were acceptable. But Palmer? He seemed as apoplectic as Kanell has ever seemed.

You are correct - one had an insane ref, the other did not. One understood the passion of the game, the other was an idiot.
uk player should not have been tossed, regardless of official

richt should have been tossed, regardless of official
