The Sun's Arizin: Knocking a referee down is definitely a technical foul

Villanova's Ryan Arcidiacono owes a lot of his skill and development to the coaches who taught him the game before he ever set foot on the Main Line hardwood. Neshaminy High's Jerry Devine is one of those coaches, and he's now making the news for something a little less proud than helping the Arcidiacono boys to develop their basketball game.

Apparently, he chest-bumped a referee (but it looked like a headbutt). That will get you a technical foul every time, and an ejection, and in this case, an indefinite suspension -- a term that human resources uses when they want you to go away while they talk about firing you.
