Was the player ejected? or DQ'ed for fouls accumulated?
I'm assuming the reporter got the semantics wrong. The ball was definitely alive and it was a contact foul, so it would be difficult to classify as a technical. Intentional, perhaps flagrant contact foul--maybe.
If the player was ejected it must have been ruled flagrant, which a guy sipping a cup of coffee while sitting comfortably at his keyboard in NC with no "feel" for the game really didn't perceive.
Interesting that it made the news.
