Miami (Ohio) is still perfect, but the RedHawks (29-0, 16-0 MAC) nearly lost their title as the lone unbeaten team in Division I men's college basketball Friday night in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

At the end of the first half against Western Michigan (10-19, 4-12), a disgruntled Steele hurled words toward officials being held back by his own staff. His outburst culminated in him sending a speaker flying prior to him entering the locker room and resulted in a technical foul.

But Steele cooled off, and his RedHawks bounced back from trailing at the half for the sixth time this season — and then from falling behind nine points with 6:38 to go — to defeat the Broncos 69-67.
