As far as the BC coach coming onto the floor, would this be a possible technical? Or did they "cough, cough" beckon the coach over to help. As far as NCAA rulings. THanks! [/B]

Hmmmm.....
Let's see......NCAA rule 10-11-5 sez "Any team member
other than the head coach who leaves the bench area
when a fight MAY break out or has broken out
shall be ejected".
It's looks like the BC "cough cough" coach was OK. Now.... iirc, it seems like there mighta been a few "cough cough" Duke players from the bench stick a toe out on the court though. That's supposed to be an automatic ejection.
What's your thoughts on that?
EDITED TO ADD:
Upon further review......

Click on the right to see the altercation. I can see 2 Duke subs off the bench
and 3 Duke assistant coaches out on the court. Looks like there shoulda been 5 ejections right there if they hadda called it by the rule.
Thoughts now?
