How is Sola Scriptura incoherent?

John 20:17] Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’ ”

So, how does that affect the Athanasian Christian doctrine of the Trinity?
