In the final seconds of Texas Tech's upset win over OK State, smart fouls a tech player hard and falls near the stands. One fan helps him, then smart turns around and is seen face to face with an elderly man. Smart then shoves the man. The man clearly said something, but don't know what. No matter what, he shouldn't have shoved the man. He was given a technical. I think he should've been thrown out. Wouldn't be surprised if he's suspended.
 
Rumors say he was spit/spat upon. Changes things up a little bit.
 
I figured it was a racial epithet. But, if the guy spit on him, I don't know that I can blame him, even though I know it's inexcusable.

Why is it inexcusable? If somebody shouted a racial epithet or spit on me in close quarters, I'd deck their ass.
 
Really pathetic how Texas Tech is arguably in better shape than us despite the fact an alcoholic ran the program for the past 2 years.
 
I guess that's what I'm saying. Ideally a player would never shove a fan. But as a human being, I would have decked the guy.

There is some significant analysis to be made here on power dynamics and expectations, but it's kind of hilarious that it's inexcusable for this kid to stand his ground. Pun intended.

Not the first time this guy has gotten into it with a player:

That guy is lucky that most people are in step with the concept of social order. I'd love to see somebody deck his ass. Stay classy, Lubbock.
