And sometimes there is only so much you can do for crowd control. But an AD should have the self-control to not make himself the story. They are in a well-paid, high profile, professional position.

Storming the field is fine... the coach was the problem

The fans were the least of the issues at the end of that game. Fans were fine

So far I’m underwhelmed by Yormark’s disciplinary moves in the conference.

Pretty sure Harlan's fine was one of the biggest the Big12 has done

True, but it should have also included being banned from the sideline

That is nice and all, but banning and AD from the sideline is a huge step. And

To the contrary, I think you close the door on problems. ADs would be on notice.

Maybe, and I am not a fan of how some coaches have acted. Plus it could help

I disagree. I think it makes future problems of the same sort far less likely.

Our AD was on the field as they worked out the last second at ASU

While play was stopped? That's different.

This doesn’t really seem like an issue to me. Mark Harlan is the only one dumb

With the multiple problems the conference has had on the field this year ...

Let them have fun on the field. For the right game $25k is worth it.

There should be no fines for fans storming the field. Storming the field is good. HOT TAKE.

What about player safety?

No touching

Big fines if someone gets hurt.

You mean those zero times a player ever got hurt in this situation?

I would fine coach much more for yelling at refs during review while surrounded

Not to mention intimidation aspect to influence ruling whether it might work or not.

So, can we raise ticket prices 50 cents and storm every game?

I don’t have an issue with students storming the field, BYU fans/students have done it. Football games at the end of the

Storming field is great. No problem. Storming early should be $1B fine.

rcbyufan

The fine should be enough to make sure schools put measures in place to make sure storming early doesn’t happen

The early part and their coach acting like a crazy jack-a is the problem.
