Seth Greenberg has to nip this in the bud right way... While Virginia Tech was getting mugged by the Yellow Jackets, the Hokies were getting screwed with tick tack fouls... small change as Bill Raferty would say... so I can see the frustration from Allen, but it's no excuse for losing his head the way he did... however, I agree with you guys that the punishment was a little rough... this hit on Tylor Hansbrough from Gerald Henderson was much worse... and I think he only a one game suspension (and Billy Packer is full of crap... he is such a ACC-North Carolina homer): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGHaLUgrzi4&feature=related Get ready for Duke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtJbnQ1Kz98 It was dumb as hell and Jeff Allen should be running extra sprints at 5 AM everyday this week… Seth Greenberg has to nip this in the bud right way… While Virginia Tech was getting mugged by the Yellow Jackets, the Hokies were getting screwed with tick tack fouls… small change as Bill Raferty would say… so I can see the frustration from Allen, but it’s no excuse for losing his head the way he did… however, I agree with you guys that the punishment was a little rough… this hit on Tylor Hansbrough from Gerald Henderson was much worse… and I think he only a one game suspension (and Billy Packer is full of crap… he is such a ACC-North Carolina homer):

It wasn't like Allen tried to knock the ref over, he just bumped him with his elbow. A stupid mistake by a freshman, though I think a two-game suspension is a little harsh for such minor contact.
