I watch quite a bit of football.  Pelini's behavior is at the far end
of the spectrum.  I can't think of a single highly successful college
coach who behaves as Pelini does --- and those coaches spend as much
time before the cameras.  His behavior is objectionable and likely it
is counter-productive.  He doesn't appear to be in control of his own
behavior, e.g., that he that behaves as he does because he believes it
is effective in achieving his goals.  So, how does the team learn self
control?

Yes, the officiating was terrible to the extent that it calls into
question the integrity of the game, but the situation doesn't have to
rise to that level to elicit such reactions from Pelini.

I think Pelini is a great football coach, but his public persona ---
on the sidelines and in press conferences --- is embarrassing to the
University.
