RE: thats not what happened
He didn't even want to hug Kalani. He wanted a handshake. As soon as the hug was finished he went right at the ref, didn't talk to Kalani. I'd say he dissed Kalani, showed no respect to his "friend".

On the field yelling at the refs by the head coach is nothing, even after games.

Going after refs while ignoring the opposing coach who just wanted to shake hands is pretty shameful IMO.

He looked uncomfortable because Whit gave him a quick bro hug then attacked ref.
