This is a case where someone above the coach should hand out the punishment if the coach will not.

Its an interesting set of questions rz. Some of the things you listed would result in an ejection which may carry a fine (professional) or further suspension (college conference rules for example...in the Pac-10, if you are ejected for intentionally throwing at a batter, you serve a 3-game league suspension).

This one seems a little different...definitely not accepted as "part of the game" like some of the others you listed...this appears willful and outside the lines if there is such a thing.

I'd like to see at least a 1-game suspension in this case, but then again I don't know everything the coach or AD knows. Seems to me the SEC could do something about it too...similar to the Pac-10's ejection rule.
