Coach Runyon called that timeout to "get the Referee's attention" to try and get them to call roughing the passer penalties because his QB was getting hammered after nearly every pass he threw. Nothing dirty, but still roughing, and a responsible official has to make those calls as his primary duty is to PROTECT the players. Coach Runyon doesn't need anyone to defend him, but for an anonymous internet poster to opine that he would ever duck an opponent in a cowardly fashion is too asinine to ignore. Coach is neither a Savior, nor a Saint, and he would never claim to be. However, he is as fierce and dedicated of a competitor as one could ever find the words to describe, and his loyalty to his players cannot EVER be questioned.
