MWC Reprimands Wyoming Coach For Flipping Bird
12th November, 2007 - 5:24 pm
ESPN - Wyoming coach Joe Glenn didn't like how Utah tried an onside kick with a 43-point lead, and he let coach Kyle Whittingham know by giving him the finger.

On Monday, Glenn apologized, and the Mountain West Conference issued a public reprimand for the gesture which violated the conference's sportsmanship policy.

"I met with my team on Sunday and apologized to them for the gesture I made toward the Utah bench during the game," Glenn said Monday in a statement. "I also want to apologize to all fans for that action. Football is an emotional game, and I let my emotions get the best of me. I felt it was appropriate for me to let my team and all fans know that I am truly sorry for that emotional moment."

Wyoming athletic director Tom Burman said he viewed Glenn's gesture as a one-time occurrence. [READ]
