2018-19 Nominations: "Cone of Shame"

[WuShock Reaper]

We have had a few teams this season that certainly could or should be nominated, but I'll start with the next video as the leading candidate for the whole year...

Nominee #1:

A Division III basketball player is now suspended indefinitely and banned from campus after hitting an opposing player with a vicious elbow during a game on Tuesday night.

Late in a loss to Nichols College, Fitchburg State's Kewan Platt approached Nate Tenaglia and hit him in the face with a right elbow after Tenaglia shot a 3-pointer. In the video posted on social media, Tenaglia, who made the shot, falls to the ground after being struck.

Why did none of his teammates appear to defend him?

That cheap shot, as Rome would say; is a universal “reason to go”.

[Dark Lord]

It would appear none of his teammates saw it happen which would explain why nobody reacted to it in the way you indicate. It is probably a good thing that they had not as nobody wants to see a division three brawl.

this Platt kid has no soul

[ShockerFever]

This is being discussed in the NCAA forum, but yah, a dirty scumbag that should see jail time.

[Shocker Mama]

I read that he had a previous technical in the game also.

[Shocker Mama]

Could be a place for him with the Redbirds, maybe.

[Kung Wu]

Classic!!

Illinois State might be interested in him but they will want to see if he can use his left elbow equally well. And who know if he has a clue on how to do a karate kick to the neck or head. Although Muller is apparently pretty good at coaching those things.
