Marshall Coach's FLOP

We've seen some absolutely ridiculous flops from athletes in basketball, football, and soccer lately. Now, even the coaches are flopping, and using fake heart attacks as their flop method of choice. Well, at least that's the case for Marshall Thundering Herd basketball head coach, Tom Herrion. 

From Yahoo's college basketball blog, 'The Dagger':

With four minutes left in the first half of Marshall's 65-64 victory over Central Florida on Saturday night, Herrion dropped to the floor clutching his chest after Knights guard Isaiah Sykes appeared to graze him with an elbow as he ran down court. Herrion's over-the-top acting became more bizarrely melodramatic from there, leading some reporters to fear he'd actually suffered a heart attack.

Referees spent 15 minutes reviewing all angles of the play on a courtside monitor before deciding to call a flagrant foul on Sykes. Asked about the play by reporters after the game, Herrion was quick to downplay it, tersely calling it a "non-story."

Central Florida probably feels otherwise considering how close the game was. Marshall hit one of two free throws, which was significant since the Thundering Herd went on to beat Central Florida by a single point to remain unbeaten in Conference USA play.

And here's video of the flop:

Pathetic.
