Sacramento State football coach Brennan Marion has been fined $10,000 by the Big Sky Conference for publicly criticizing game officiating. The conference issued a warning that more severe penalties could follow if Marion repeats such conduct. The disciplinary action comes as Sacramento State leads the Big Sky Conference in penalties this season, accumulating 72 flags through eight games. Athletic Director Mark Orr released a statement accepting the conference's decision and reaffirming the university's commitment to Big Sky sportsmanship policies. The Hornets will focus on their final four regular season games following the controversy.
