WATCH: Jerry Stackhouse escorted off court by security following wild scene, ejection vs VCU

Vanderbilt head coach Jerry Stackhouse was clearly unhappy with a technical foul against Liam Robbins Wednesday night against VCU. He let the officials know — and was escorted off the court by security as a result.

The foul occurred with 7:59 to play in the second half of Wednesday’s matchup in Richmond when Robbins appeared to tap his head after a monster dunk. The referees called a technical foul on him, and Stackhouse berated the officials during the commercial break and media timeout. It resulted in two technical fouls against him and his subsequent ejection.

At the time, VCU had a 54-51 lead over Vanderbilt, which entered the game with a 3-3 record to start the year. The Commodores are coming off a 67-59 win over Fresno State last week.
