Gtfo, No you don't. That hit occurred so late after the play, the ball had already bounced some 8-10 yards away.

No player is bracing for a hit that late, it's basically a sucker punch, which is why it is so dangerous and dirty. As a "coach" I'm surprised this needs to be explained to you.

Remember this hit from the Florida Safety against Oklahoma in the BCS National Championship?

mckibaj, that was a live ball and the hit actually defended the pass and WR ability to catch the ball.

What happened to Hunter was basically a sucker punch unlike that play.

it wouldn't get near as much coverage as it's getting for Deion and Colorado's Cinderella story.

This was still a big story even without Deion. If the first true 2way star in decades were on Ohio St, Texas or USC, this would be reported on extensively.

I was excited to watch Hunter play this year. It's really cool to see a 2way star, just like Ohtani in MLB.

Meh.

I've seen it. We even nearly killed a Georgia WR. Yeah, that is a penalty now but perfectly fine then, but the death threats being on table just shows how soft the society is. That play against Hunter would have been an atta boy. There would have never been death threats of any kind.

Tell Josey from Missouri we are sorry for pushing him into a golf cart as well.

Or for ramming Fairley's facemask into the small of Murrays back. shite like that is dangerous if you step back and think about the bigger picture of what we expect football players to do.... If you dont zoom out you feel better inside.
