HS Football Players Target Ref

Here's video of a Texas high school football game. Yes, it's really Texas and it's also pretty disturbing. On what is nothing more than an off-tackle running play, 1 defensive back drills the official from behind while a second one spears the official, leading with the helmet, while the official is on the ground. Sorry, but as far as I'm concerned, that kind of poo starts at the top and the team should forfeit the entire season. You're done, goodbye, go find something else to do with your football budget...

Evidently the ref had thrown out two of their teammates the ply before which I assume was the motivation.

Apparently the coach was livid when it happened which has led to speculation that this was a decision by the player and not an ordered hit.

If that is the case then the players should be charged to fullest extent of the law and barred from ever playing football again.  I disagree however with calls for the team to forfeit the season.  That punishes innocent people that had not part in the crime, and it was a crime.

If evidence comes out that the coach(s) ordered this then they too should face charges in addition to losing their jobs.

The NCAA is always punishing kids who had nothing to do with anything, like every time they levy sanctions against a team.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By CRA · Posted

      You do, the guy who doesn’t appear to grasp projection.  as the entire board knows, I do in fact, take positions.  The position here I have taken is that Bryce Young is a weak bottom tier starting QB, without NFL starting QB tools, that we must move on from.

      The OP for one. Asserting that people blamed Bryce for the loss in the title of the thread. That was not the prevailing sentiment at the time this thread was created. Very much a minority thing, I don’t remember but maybe one person if that, putting it on Bryce as the main reason. Troll thread. Did a good job too. Look at the pages.  Someone counting up the draft picks as 10 on offense and 10 on defense or whatever the number was, today or yesterday - of which the offensive ones were heavily 1s and 2s and the defensive picks were heavily day 3 and declaring that proof that the offense wasn’t favored like people claim. The obvious neglect we watched for two years. I spent time refuting that bullshit because someone needed to.  People saying we are bad horrible people and hate poor lil Bryce for no reason, as if it is a personal thing. Constantly.   Along the same lines is people saying we non Bryce fans would rather lose than have him play well and the team wins. That we are mad when the team wins   Point illustrated.
