  Barney and the rest of the Assistant Coaches aren't going to put up with
  this for long.

So, it's okay to berate a college kid, but not a grown man who gets paid 
handsomely to be there?

I doubt we'll see many (if any) defections among the assistants, unless 
Bo chooses to fire someone. No matter what happens on the bench, the 
assistants (and the players) know it will quickly blow over and Bo will 
not take it public. When things go badly, he doesn't point fingers, 
usually saying, "I need to do a better job."

Bo has some rough edges, but he is getting better. His demeanor after 
the ISU loss was much improved over what we saw after VaT and TxT. His 
interaction with the officials is likewise better than in the past. The 
man learns from his mistakes. Give him time; he has a terrific upside.
