In response to cc66
cc66, that person's argument is obviously a faulty apples to oranges comparison that would only apply if the three coaches you named all had similar win-loss records and skills. Unfortunately for Columbia fans our guy is not quite in the class yet of Tommy Amaker who is the greatest recruiter in Harvard Basketball History and has retained all the vast talent he has recruited, and James Jones, another great recruiter with remarkable game management skills. Those guys have so distinguished themselves at Harvard and Yale that they are entitled to keep their jackets on during the game. That's not the case with Engles so he obviously needs to change his approach and one of the things that might work for him is to take the jacket off and show a little emotion. Incidentally, my feeling is that most college athletes prefer coaches that show some spirit and enthusiasm for you and your teammates during a sporting event, including showing their anger when a ref makes questionable or even unquestionable calls that go against you.
