Is throwing a shoe 10 yards a penalty?

It's a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.***

was the reaction for the Florida and NC State players as if he didn't understand what he did wrong.

"giving him the business" by a narrow margin.
It is possible I'll find more votes for "throwing a shoe 20 yards" some time late tonight or early tomorrow morning and my vote could change.
But for now, it's "the business"!

No question in my mind:
"Throwing a shoe 20 yards downfield" (especially considering how costly it was) will be remembered a century from now as one of the all-time greatest mishaps.
But in terms of the actual call? Ron Cherry by an old-school country mile. I remember this from when it happened, and I still laugh about it on occasion.
"Giving him the business!"

BTW, if you Google "Clemson Football" right now, this comes up #1 (see attached file).

Shoe throw call was better...

... first, because it was ORIGINAL. Folks, nobody but me seems to remember NFL referee Ben Dreith making the "giving him da business" call YEARS before Ron Cherry did it. Cherry completely ripped it off. (Dreith was awesome, by the way. He called a game like an angry drill sergeant.)

Second, the ref in the LSU-Florida game, even though he called the wrong number of the offending player, nonetheless gave a DISTANCE in yards of the shoe throw. That is top-drawer officiating.

You beat me to it. But, I didn't remember which ref it was. I knew someone in the NFL had said it long before Cherry.

I'll go "Business". I do wonder if only 15 yards or so

would have been OK with the shoe. Obviously 20 is a penalty. Wonder if you can go to replay for shoe distance?

Giving him da business. I think a 10 or 15 yard shoe throw is akin to running into the kicker vs. roughing. Probably a 5 yarder.
