Here is a link about the end of the game. Also shows the video of the post game news conference. I used the word "classless". I'll go ahead and stand by that. Clearly not "classy", right? Or "gracious", Or "sportsmanlike". A good bit beyond "disappointed". Definitely angry which is understandable I guess. Showing it like this isn't ok though, it's childish.
As for being "in private"...if it was in private, why was it all over the media ... immediately? There is no "in private", the head coach should probably know that. Anyone who covers college football should know that too. Doesn't really matter who he took it out on, gotta get a grip on his crazy side.
