I realize that the horse is dead in regards to this subject but I have not been on the site for a week and am just getting to some of these posts. It is clear that Grey is one of the more immature coaches I have ever seen at any level. It is one thing to be competitive but a whole different thing to not shake a 20 year olds hand while he is trying to apologize and to yell at officials from the stands during a JV game and I could name some other incidents that did not involve the heat of the battle behavior.
Q, I appreciate you putting this on the post on behalf of someone from Augustana but I don't believe it for a second. I know there are plenty of people at the university who are embarrassed by his behavior and are put in a position to make excuses but it is getting to to be awfully challenging for them rationalize his behavior. I am waiting for the time when someone in the administration has the guts to say enough is enough.
I appreciate Augustana fans loyalty to his school but I am not sure he really would want his football coaches to behave like Grey just to get back to their glory days of football. The reality is that Coach Reade never behaved like this and we were incredibly successful. Grey has had some success during the regular season but I can't help believe that his antics wear thin on his players and this is why they have had such poor success in the NCAA tournaments.
I hope I don't stir up a whole new discussion on this but wanted to get my opinion out there.

I received an e-mail tonight from someone close to the Augustana program who said that Coach G did not say anything to provoke Victor's reaction after that made 3-pointer early in the game. Since I watched the game from the comfort of my basement in Lincoln, Nebraska, I have no way at all to sort out the truth. Just wanted to post that other side of the story to be fair, and out of respect for the person who e-mailed me.
