Five Players Ejected From Marshall-WVU Game As Kick To The Balls Turns "Friends Of Coal" Game Unfriendly
The intrastate rivalry between West Virginia and Marshall has been nasty of late both on the football field and basketball court, and the annual Capital Classic game (featuring a massive, full-court logo from "Friends of Coal") turned ugly again tonight in Charleston as the Herd's Robert Goff delivered a boot to Juwan Staten's crotch late in the Mountaineers' 69-59 win.
The kick sparked an on-court shoving match between the teams, and four West Virginia players would end up being ejected alongside Goff for their roles in the melee. With Ndamukong Suh's crotch-kick fresh on our minds, are we entering a new era of the cheapest of cheap shots in sports? Share your favorites below.
