In response to AntiUngvar
Let's be careful here: there are different types of emotional engagement, and this thread seems to be conflating them. At one end of the spectrum you have positive enthusiasm, which I'd associate with Kyle Smith and Steve Donahue. At the other end you have a more abusive sort of energy. Buddy Mahar was probably in this category, as was Joe Scott, and maybe Pete Carill. Also Bob Knight. Once upon a time, abuse was an effective way of motivating college athletes. No more. College kids (to their credit) won't tolerate this sort of treatment anymore.
