He said he told the team at halftime to keep their poise. He didn't like what happened in the first half but he was going to stick up for his guys because "we're not going to be disrespected in our own building."
He felt the conference office was making them out to be a villain and he didn't appreciate it. He said the officials called double technicals because they called double technicals and it was because they couldn't handle the poor sportsmanship factor started by South Alabama. People would look at the boxscore and see four technical fouls against us when in reality it was one (Long in the second half.) One was on an assistant coach and the other two were because the officials didn't handle it properly.

Evidently the league ordered both coaches to issue "mea culpas" and take equal responsibility.
He said even more when the interview was over, but of course, that was off the record
