Marshall received a public reprimand from the Sun Belt Conference after drone footage from the Virginia Tech football game on Sept. 23 was posted online.
The drone footage, which captured players and fans throughout the stadium from above, received over three million views online, but it broke a SBC rule that requires drone footage to conclude one hour before kickoff and resume one hour after the game’s conclusion.
“We hired a drone company out of Minnesota to do a campus tour, and so there’s a bunch of different scenes,” said Dave Traube, the chief marketing officer at Marshall.
