dafuq?!?! We've been told since Pop Warner that clipping is illegal, and not only a penalty but one of the most taboo of all penalties. Players seasons and/or careers have ended from clipping penalties.

To say that there wasn't malicious intent behind this is asinine. That unc OT, Kiaro Holts, knew that this was an illegal hit he was going to do, Clowney's back was to him, he got beat. You'll never be able to convince me that Holts didn't know what he was doing was wrong, he's a D1 football player in his Junior year. c'mon...let's at least be honest and call it like it is.

I guess we need to get a Goon like in pro hockey. We had one on my high school soccer team for this exact reason, seriously. Although I don't know what the repercussions would be in NCAA football.

No shite. Going more for the "he did it on accident" side.

Do you think I'm retarded? Like I would ban myself from the Rant for 2 months if my team didn't win a bunch of games and then the championship with a new coach or something?
