I had stopped the video right before that part, as I figured it was over. I would certainly contemplate a tech, however I have to wonder if punishment for that action would fall under the school/conference rather than us officials.

Going after the fan like that seems to fall outside of our jurisdiction. If it was a player on player thing, then by all means he'd be t'd up and ejected. But player on fan... I don't know. I look forward to the responses.
