Video: Oklahoma State Facial Dunk Leads To Ejection

While the win may have officially been the coming out party for Oklahoma State’s fabulous freshman LeBryan Nash, who tallied a career high 27 points, it was the rather odd circumstance surrounding Nash’s teammate Markel Brown’s ejection that may be most interesting about the win.

This season, Brown has earned a reputation for being one of the country’s best dunkers, in addition to being a Top 5 scorer for the Cowboys. In the early minutes of the game against Missouri, Brown drove to the free throw line a rose up for a one-handed dunk that would arguably make even MJ proud. But to his team’s dismay, Brown insisted on staring down and jawing at Mizzou players, earning a dreaded technical foul.

No harm, no foul, right? Nowadays, it appears everyone gets a tech for taunting after a highlight reel dunk. Apparently it didn’t faze his Cowboy teammates as they took it to NCAA POY candidate Marcus Denmon and Co, to the tune of a 7 point win, furthering the distance between the Tigers and the Big 12 leading Kansas Jayhawks.

In one of the more entertaining moments of the game, OK State point guard Keiton Page threw a lob to Brown running the baseline, resulting in one of the most vicious poster dunks you will see in college basketball all season. But apparently Brown isn’t a quick learner as he promptly stared daggers and jawed at Missouri PG Flip Pressey, earning yet another tech from the officials, followed by a subsequent ejection, because it was his 2nd technical of the game.

Some people will never learn…
