Tim Floyd Reprimanded After Sideline Outburst

Tim Floyd has been reprimanded by Conference USA after an outburst during a game last week.

Floyd, the first year coach at UTEP, had to be escorted off the court by police officers after being thrown out for arguing a call. Floyd claims that he was mostly innocent, and that the officials had a quick whistle.

Still, C-USA officials are upset with the way that he handled the ejection.

"When a coach is ejected, I expect them to leave the floor," league commissioner Britton Banowsky said in a statement. "Coach Floyd's actions were unacceptable. I have made our expectations clear going forward and do not expect this to happen again."
