"Conference USA spokesperson Courtney Morrison-Archer said the league reviewed the incident and the officials made the correct call and no additional penalties are forthcoming."

You mad?

I'm mad, and I'm no UCF fan. That was simply a disgusting action by a coach intended to sway the result of the game.

I'm not sure I don't believe that Marshall should be forced to forfeit.

You can't be serious.

No, he's 99Tiger

and that was pathetic, the player never even touched him.

If he faked it, then I absolutely have a problem with a coach inserting himself into the game in that manner, for the benefit of his team. IMO, it would be the equivalent of a coach coming off the sidelines to make a tackle. Sleaze.

If the player initiated the contact, then the call was correct.

If the contact was initiated because the coach ran too far out onto the floor and got in the players running lane, the tech was called on the wrong team.

I don't feel like watching the video again, I have better things to do. No matter what, he should be ashamed of that acting job...and I'm sure will be mocked for it.

I guess Head Coaches earning close to $500,000 are now being compared to an actual student-athlete that plays the game.

I think the Marshall players' reaction on the bench is priceless looking at their coaches actions....glad the national media brought this attention to their millions of people yesterday (from ESPN to CBS Sports to Yahoo to Youtube Deadspin).

Now that he's been fired, Herrion could probably start up his acting school that he has long talked about.

Here's that amazing "acting" video one more time.
