None the less this dude who suckered punched him needs to be kicked off the team.
I mean I disagree. He will be because it is on video, but this shite has been going on since the 40s. You beat up a teammate, then have the balls to stay on our campus and come to our dorm, you are going to get hit. They didnt pile on and crush him either

Like I said, he didn't go to where the guy resided. It's a girls dorm. That said, Barker is from Northern Kentucky so he's probably a fricking halfwit.

What is it with UK and EKU?


Is there some backstory to all these off the field shenanigans?

So you have a player that goes into a dorm on campus that isn't his in retaliation for a fight his teammate pretty clearly instigated earlier in the night and he has the right to whoop someone's arse and not get disciplined?

Does the EKU football team own EKU's campus or something?

I'd be willing to let them take it off our hands.

Yeh. If you get in a fight at an EKU bar and hospitalize an EKU football player, it is a pretty damn good idea to get off their campus

Come on man, you know the rules. Doesn't matter who started it. Once the hands are thrown its tribal. They should've got the hayull out of EKU. I would have.

I didn't say it was smart of Barker to stay. But you're saying the player that sucker punched him, who went out of his way to track him down in another dorm, shouldn't be disciplined for it.

What kind of trash arse logic is that?

Yep. Guys like Andolsek or Cantrell from LSU football history would have likely killed this UK player

I really don't know. It probably sucks playing at a school where 99% of your classmates are going to root against you when you play UK. The guy who landed the sucker punch was processed by Stoops upon arrival though. I'd imagine he had a bit of a chip on his shoulder regarding UK players as a result.

Lol this

I was watching the video wondering who is going to be the attacker. Saw that guy come in taking off his shirt and immediately thought "that's that mf'er right there"

So wait, this took place the night of the bar fight? If so, why in the hell would the UK player feel it was a good idea to be in the lobby of an EKU dorm?

LSU players do the sucker punching. At least this dude dropped the guy.





Oh, a ha ha ha....

If you're speaking of Jeremy Hill, you are wrong.
An idiot kid continually followed Hill and yelled insults at him. Hill gave him a glancing blow on the head WHICH DIDN'T EVEN PHASE the kid, as he got up RIGHT AWAY AND CONTINUED TO JAW AT HILL.
The video of course, only showed the 'punch'.

And what did the kid do? He dropped his complaint.

That was the strangest reaction I've ever seen to a dude getting punched. Guy lays on the ground for 10 seconds, gets up and acts like nothing happened.

So odd

doesn't necessarily "need" to be payback, but if you beat up a guy from another team, and then you're in a dorm on that team's campus the same night, where you're likely to run into his teammates, things can go bad for you.

this article gives some context

My favorite paragraph in that article:

quote:

"Dubose stated that he struck Scurry several times," the report says. Dubose said he didn't remember kicking Scurry, but he did say he moved Scurry "off of him after Scurry landed face-first on his leg. Dubose stated that he did recall elbowing Scurry during the fight."




If he didn't kick or knee him how'd Scurry end up with facial fractures and a broken nose? As for the sucker-punch, this is Kentucky, specifically Eastern, KY and as someone who has a good amount of family there fighting at bars is a hobby. Really, that goes for all of Kentucky. The fact that Scurry (who plays for EKU) couldn't hold his liquor and still fight is just shameful.

IOW, in both cases no harm, no foul. Cuz Kentucky, y'all.

To be fair he also got hit in the face with a beer bottle.

New world Belle. EKU dude probably didn't track him down at all. More than likely he got a text message saying a UK player was there. The downside of that is players have too much pride to ignore a txt like that.

Besides it's Kentucky. And don't think I'm a hata, half my fam is from there. I just know y'all like I know Upper East, TN - like I said before fightin' is a hobby.
