If we are there, we can prevent Smart from attacking the fan. We can then have game management remove the spectator.

Who is going to help him that quickly? Smart has to be smarter than that. Most players make that kind of play and when it is clear they are not hurt, they turn around and go back to the court. I am sure often people say things to players in these situations that are not nice. And I know during the games things are said to players that are not nice and we do not see players going into the stands to address those issues.
Name another situation in big time college basketball you have ever seen a player go into the stands and confront or physically engage a fan?
