(This is a rather long clip, so you might want to go grab a beverage, kids)...Fort Hays State University debate coach William Shanahan is shown on the video in a profane, in-your-face argument with his counterpart from the University of Pittsburgh during a debate in March at Emory University in Atlanta.
Things got out of control when two judges gave the team low scores, school officials said.
The video shows Shanahan jumping up and down and ranting about the loss. He then bends over and pulls down his khaki shorts, exposing his underwear.
No one knows what kind of punishment Shanahan may receive, but so far he has not been disciplined, according to The Kansas City Star.
Gould said the Pittsburgh professor, Shanara Reid-Brinkley, had accused the Fort Hays team of dropping her as a judge because she's black.
The Kansas school also is looking into what an official calls the "racial element" to the episode.
