Should the coach have been held to blame for this?

Like some others, I really didn't read the coach's comments the way you did, but I appreciate your perspective as a coach on this.

He clearly thinks he did nothing wrong. Others, including his bosses, disagree. He made the choice to speak out, and that choice seems to have cost him his job. Can't say I'm surprised.
