Here's a snippet

The game resumed with four players on each side and ended with seven players on the court after Tennessee State's Jeremy Jackson fouled out.

That's really funny!!

that is weird.

i don't understand the decision to eject all the players who were in the game when the brawl started, unless they were somehow participating (the article didn't specify whether they did or not).

but the game ending 4-3....that's cool/crazy

I like this story too.

From what I've heard they ejected everyone who left the bench to participate in the fight. That's actually the rule in most sports, including hockey.

I didn't think that powerplays existed in basketball though...

Taht is cool...but the Ass Press has once again deserved it's abbreviated name with unclear reporting. Exactly why were all of the players on the court at the time of the fight ejected?

Well, one person starts fighting so I guess people ran onto to the court to help out or defend their teammates. That's what usually happens in fights. You usually see coaches and assistant coaches on both sides pushing and holding their own players from leaving the bench.
