NIU vs. W. Mich scuffle

http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=14584641&sf19004741=1

Well..... this was 5 minutes into the game.
End result was double flagrant on NIU #5, ejected.
NIU #0, #12, #32 ejected for leaving bench.
NIU #34 issued a technical, and WMU #42 issued a technical.

Watched it a lot...
The trail signals a defensive tip here on the steal but I'm pretty positive red #23 controls the ball in the front court after the tip and goes into the backcourt.
Obviously a "bang-bang" situation and there's a lot going on, but a case where Center needs to step up and help. Easy to say from watching the video and not actually reffing the game, but a close call here could have avoided a scrum and 4 ejections. (But I'm not excusing the hard foul, nor the players leaving their bench)

Discuss.....
