UConn fined for storming the court

[HuskyNan]

Never heard of this before

 

[alphasigko]

Say what? Fans storm courts all over the country after big victories. Not sure it was warranted after this one, but it happened...

 

[FairView]

And the University had control over that how?
Guess we won't be hearing anything from them about the Refs being misguided with the second T on Dan Hurley.

The New London Day will condemn this thuggish behavior

And every time they do the conference fines them, it's dumb. The SEC fines teams $250K

 

[methodology]

This is SOP conferences have these fines in place

 

[Uconn77Duke74]

Does $5,000 to the Kevin Ollie fund count as a donation of our choice?

 

[huskymedic]

… in case anyone missed it in the other thread (The Crowd) - the fine has been admirably covered by “Big Larry Forearm”:

What a boss move.

Its standard in every conference. $5k is a joke, based on that amount the BE actually encourages it.

OU fans stormed the field after the red river rivalry game last fall at the Cotton Bowl. Because it was a neutral field, there was no fine. My son said it was most fun he had at a football game in his 4 years.

We should have stormed the court at Atlantis when we beat Auburn.

I think the "Human Fund" would be a good choice.

 

[Palatine]

All this talk has made me realize I really like the word "storming."

 

[Stinger92860]

Sandy Hook Scholarship

Well done

 

[jleves]

Is there a charity to teach refs to officiate the game without bias?

Good, because it's going to be storming tomorrow.

No….it was the Providence kids

 

[TerryBoyz]

How many members on this board? Let’s match the $5k. People who were pro storm the court $10, anti- stormers $20!

 

[gtcam]

an honorable and gracious move by Big Larry
Great stuff from the big guy.
I think AD David Benedict should present him with a leather UConn coat at halftime of the DePaul game

They will institute sanctions!! No publishing on weekends.

The Ollie fund?

 

[UCTitleTown]

Didn't Providence fans storm the court after the Xavier 3OT game? I guess the Big East needs the cash.

No, they didn’t. Probably too tired.

I was thinking along the same lines. Donate to the organization that trains seeing eye dogs on behalf of the Big East officials.

So, storm msg court in every round?
