Barfing on court, losing shorts -- what's the worst that can happen? The Q&A

A quick question-and-answer session with NCAA Tournament players at The Q: What's the most embarrassing thing to happen to a player on your team this season?

A quick question-and-answer session with NCAA Tournament players at The Q

What's the most embarrassing thing to happen to a player on your team this season?

Mike Morrison, George Mason junior forward: "We had a guy who was going down the court against Northern Iowa and he had too many little electrolyte bars before the game, and he was going down the court, and I was like, 'What's going on?' And he threw up on the court. The cameras didn't catch it somehow, and he went right over to the sidelines and threw up again. How the cameras didn't catch it, I don't know, but it was funny. He ate like five of those bars in a row."

Beforehand, he shared the tale of how Jeromie Hill lost his shorts.

Devin Gibson, Texas-San Antonio senior guard: Asked the question, Gibson went back into his locker room and put the question to his teammates. Teammate Jeromie Hill offered himself up and Gibson agreed. "Yeah, Jeromie's pants falling down in a game."

"I was playing defense with my hands up," Hill said, "and someone's foot got between my legs, and my shorts weren't tied tightly, and they just went, "whoop."

Dante Jackson, Xavier senior guard: "Can I go back to a year ago? It happened to me. We were playing Kansas State and I threw the ball directly out of bounds. I caught the ball and thought I saw somebody out of my peripheral vision, but it was the ref. So I threw it at him and he dodged it and it went right out of bounds."

Jae Crowder, Marquette junior forward: "We were warming up for St. John's at home, and we do a little drill where the coach throws the ball off the backboard and we dunk it, and Davante Gardner went to dunk it, and right when he dunked it, he slipped off the rim and fell on his back. We laughed and laughed and laughed. He's big, so we knew he was all right."
