Here's a relevant quote:

In the Wednesday article, Chronicle reporter Michael Murphy details how he stood in front of the Southern Miss student section at the end of the game and was hit by a quarter thrown from the stands.

Maybe Michael Murphy looks like SFT?

NO QUARTER

My reaction is to wonder what planet this sportswriter is from to go stand in front of the opposing team's student section. Hey, they were throwing money at him! He should go stand in front of any section at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge & he'd wish it was money they were tossing. Empty whiskey bottles are more the norm there.

USM fans are about as well mannered as any around. But students are students. I can only assume that, being from Houston, he's never been to a home game there where a significant number of students showed up.
