Cam Spencer, a Rutgers grad and NBA player, decided he want to play for UConn when he saw Dan Hurley's court side antics.

Players who want to win want coaches who will fight for them.

ND coach Shrewsberry was correct to dispute this shooting foul call.

That was the worst officiating sequence Shelby has ever witnessed. Overturning a clearly incorrect call to the correct one, which should have ended the game, and then overturning that call back to incorrect one after a ****-fit by the Cal coach.

The bogus overturn of an overturn cost his team a game. Sure, on the surface it’s not a good look to react like that but Shelby prefers that angry reaction to crying like a baby after a miracle win against a 2+ year Big10 doormat losing streak football team. It doesn’t get any weaker than that.

Disputing? Or attempting to physically assault someone?

Disputing, yes. Micah needed to head into the locker room showing his players he is fired up to support them through a tough loss.

Physical assault attempt, no. Theater by Notre Dame after the buzzer. Micah's message to team should be go into final minute up by five so what refs decide in last seconds doesn't matter.

He was very lucky he was held back. Otherwise he would of been done coaching.

Coaches get held back all the time to fire up their teams. Witness Dan Hurley, the most successful coach in recent college bball history. Dan is also #1 in technical fouls during that time. UConn assistant Kimani Young holds back Dan all the time
It's been one of Chris Dailey's main jobs for decades. She is often seen physically restraining and calming down Geno when he becomes heated and argues with officials.

I doubt Cam Spencer went to UCONN for that reason.
Dan Hurley:

"Spencer was a Godsend. Maybe because he wanted us before we wanted him. As a guard for mid-major Loyola University Maryland during the 2021-22 season, he happened to be watching our game against Villanova. That was the night I got ejected for making a gesture deemed unsportsmanlike, gesturing dramatically to the crowd to make more noise. Cam told us that he said to himself that night: I freakin' love that guy. I'd love to play for him. That's a coach who will go to war for his players."

Bobby Knight threw the chair in a fit of rage during a 1985 game against Purdue.
He continued his hotheaded ways until 2000 when he was fired following a long history of volatile behavior, abuse allegations, and a failure to adhere to a new "zero tolerance" policy, culminating in a final incident where he made unwelcome physical contact with a student.
When you win , it takes a lot for the school to fire you.
Complain about their behavior all you want, but the schools won't listen or do anything drastic , if they win, unless they make a bridge too far to be tolerated any more.
