re: Who gets under your skin more? Nick Saban or Nate Oats?

Oats is just new and it takes a bit longer to get used to a basektball coaches schtick

Refs have way more control over the game in basketball than in football. They can literally dictate how a primarily defensive team will perform that day.

One way or the other, a basketball coach HAS to be vocal. They all get there in their own style, I don't think people can do it the Bobby Knight way anymore, but everyone has to talk to the refs in their own way.

When a new coach enters his way of talking to the refs or demonstrating on the sideline can be annoying because it's new, but it's not something everyone else isn't doing.
