In 704 career games at the helm, No. 18 Baylor men’s basketball head coach Scott Drew had never been ejected. That changed in game No. 705 as Drew was awarded his second technical foul for stepping out of the coach’s box and asking for clarification on a previous call. Clarification he never received.

Mack Rhoades, Baylor Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, said “tonight was an embarrassment for this league,” regarding the Big 12 officiating.

Big 12 basketball produced a nation-high percentage of teams on both the men’s and the women’s side in 2022-23.
