Coaches/Players Scuffle Breaks Out After North Dakota State vs. Oral Roberts Game
Aaron Doster-USA TODAY Sports
Tempers flared after last night’s matchup between the North Dakota State and Oral Roberts...
quote:

“I am very saddened about what transpired at the conclusion of our game tonight v NDSU. ORU nor NDSU want to be represented in a negative light. Dave Richman & I have spoken & I have the utmost respect for the Bison program. Congratulations to the Bison on a dominant performance,” he wrote on Twitter.

North Dakota State head coach Dave Richman also shared some words on the matter.

“You see the emotions of the game. You saw two teams playing until the end and some things spilled over,” he said, per Mike McFeely of InForum. “That’s not anything that I want this program to be a part of. There are situations that are going to be learning experiences for myself and our group as we move forward.

“Anything from our end, I will apologize to Oral Roberts and coach Mills. But I also asked our guys to play until the end and we played to the end tonight.”

You haven't heard about when Kermit Washington almost killed Rudy Tomjanovich.

Crazy. One of my friends from high school is an assistant coach for Oral Roberts and looks like he managed to stay out of the fray

Basketball players are not fighters. Of all the court scuffles I’ve ever seen, I’ve never seen a basketball player that looked like he really knew how to scrap. They all just end up flopping all over the floor and being jumped on and tackled by coaches and teammates. There is never any conclusion to any fight.
