Baylor AD warns rowdy fans
Posted: Friday March 07, 2008 05:07AM ET
With two straight home games being interrupted by debris being thrown on the court, Baylor athletic director Ian McCaw went on the offensive Thursday to try and put a stop to it. Officials waved off the final 1.8 seconds of Texas A&M's 71-57 victory over Baylor on Wednesday night after half-full plastic soda bottles came flying onto the court. It started raining debris just after A&M's Donald Sloan threw down an emphatic dunk. Earlier in the game, someone threw a yellow mini basketball onto the court. Two A&M fans were escorted out even though it was unclear if they actually were the guilty party. Last Saturday, the Missouri-Baylor game was stopped temporarily when an object was thrown on the court. Baylor coach Scott Drew got on the Ferrell Center microphone and urged the fans to stay classy.

Good move by Baylor officials. Too bad some DI schools/coaches/ADs allow their fans to act like cavemen, even promoting it with the release of personal information to fans in game programs. (Read the recent SI article about this).

Report Offensive CommentNow, she should be good-looking, but we're willing to trade looks for a certain... morally casual attitude.
