Heck Gene could have some foot stomping, earth moving, finger shaking fits when he believed the refs call was wrong,and man I enjoyed it.

I especially love it when he mad dog the under performing team by yanking all five off the floor, man oh man.

I am waiting to see what a Hasse melt down looks like/and by the way Randy and Answer you are right, the snarky one sits and argues both side of the issues.

We got a glimpse of a Haase meltdown during the Troy game when we had a number of consecutive turnovers and the margin went from a 20 point lead down to only 6. He was absolutely red-faced, shouting, and livid when the team came to the sidelines, but then stepped outside the player's circle and left it up to Rob to continue straightening out the team. He must have felt he was losing it and said, "You talk to 'em, Rob, I'm too angry and disgusted to look at them." As if he knew it would be more effective to back off and the let the team captain urge his fellows to do better, rather than him absolutely losing his temper and getting profane with them. Classy, it was.

Yep. I saw that too.

I saw him get hot at all the players at a practice, earlier this year. After he balled them out for lousy effort and concentration, he threw them all out of Bartow. Looks like he may have gotten their attention.
