I wouldn't be surprised, but what did he have to be concerned about? She went by him and leaned over to purposefully slap her.

In today's society, this may turn into a law suit.

And FOR THE RECORD... had this been done by an LSU player, this place would never sleep dye to the constant hate slung towards the situation.

So if I trespass you think you can legally punch me in the head? LOL


If it’s my workplace and you come into it when it has signage that says you are not allowed and you are acting erratically? Yes I can 100% punch you in the head. If said workplace allows weapons I could shoot your arse in all of our States.

Please point to the specific NCAA bylaw indicating it’s the player’s responsibility to enforce security on the field since many of you have likened this to security tackling a streaker or such on the field.

1. Watch the video again. She ran toward him, looking directly at him and then appears to run into him. He then hit her in the back of the head as she was leaving him.

2. She would be dumb to sue in this situation but sh probably will. If her family has money it’ll likely be a bad choice because he’ll be able to file a lawsuit as well since she ran towards him and made first contact. Plus, she was publicly intoxicated and trespassing.

3. 100% correct. The rant would do that to any team that’s won a championship in the last 10 years. The rant hates winners.

However if he tells Saban she threatened him I’m not sure Saban can suspend him. This is why rushing the field is always dumb and always a bad idea.



oh frick off, it has happened countless times without a player smacking a woman.

If it was just the women, then maybe you have an argument that he deserves the benefit of the doubt but there is another video of him hitting a dude too. That video is pretty clear that it was just him taking the frustration out.

He was just pissed they lost and wasn't having it.

I didn’t compare it to that at all. I compared it to Bobby Wagner tackling a streaker. He said he afraid for the safety of hisself and his teammates. Burton will claim the same.

So this is a first, you not only didn’t read what I said but you also obviously haven’t seen the NFL video I was referencing but you still decided to respond. Lol. I bet you haven’t even seen the Burton video either.

when a fan steps on a field the players have a right to be concerned.
Agreed. But not the right to attack a fan. Fans have no right or purpose to be on the field, but he had no right to strike her.

Was he in any danger? Likely not.

Likely not? You mean from that 110 LB girl while he was wearing football pads? Are you sure he wasn't in any danger?

Likely not. However, we just saw a man about her same size run onto the 49ers field on Monday night football with a smoke bomb.
A man? Smoke Bomb? If asmoke bomb goes off you get...smoke. Were the players in danger from the smoke? And there is a difference between going on the field in the middle of a game and stopping action, and walking around after a game.

Really? So the players can knock someone down and stomp on them if they are on the field? Get real.

I don't think fans should ever go on the field, but you are saying it is a free for all if they do? Attack them and beat them down if you wish?
I am guessing you did not think this through.

The dude put a camera right in his face. Athletes and celebrities smack cameras out of their face all the time. You would too if some idiot ran up and put a camera in your face.

Jesus none of you have even watched the videos you are referring to have you?

How will the blue check marks square this one when his claim will be she called him the "N" word? White "red necked Tennessee chick" yelling obscenities at the black football player. Neyland is about to have a BLM problem.

No i wouldnt, he was just running by. The guy didn't do anything to Burton

have you? neither the girl or the guy were any threat to him. All he had to do was keep walking.

I don't think he should be charged but he is still a moron with a short fuse.

Totally the same according to OP.

Next he will tell you that this was akin to the girl entering Burton's home illegally so he has a right to strike her in the head. (Or even shoot her had he been packing heat)


I wish I were joking, but he's already done it in this thread.

She ran towards him and into him. He shouldn’t have hit her but he didn’t attack her. She made first contact. It appeared to be unintentional but he’ll say she said something to indicate it was intentional.

quote:

I’ve mentioned this multiple times now but I’ll say it again. She could’ve had a weapon. It’s one of the reasons the SEC has such a big fine for rushing the field. I don’t think he was afraid she had a weapon but he’ll likely say he was and that’s enough to be thrown out in court.

If you are defending the smoke bomb guy against Wagner you have a very limited understanding of how things work in sports and what fans are aloud to do and not do.

Can a player knock someone down that runs into their space on a field after a game? Absolutely. We’ve actually had this happen in the SEC quite a few times and the players to my knowledge never got in trouble.
Can they stomp on someone? That’s an awful comparison of what happened here. No they can’t but it has no bearing on what Burton did. You keep saying words like “attack and beat down” that’s a completely inflated response to what happened here and to what I said.
Can players beat up fans that run on the field? No.
Can they shove, push or even hit them if they come towards their personal space? Yes. Absolutely.

The guy with the camera put it in his face and yelled. He got what he deserved.

You look like an absolute fricking loser in this thread trying to defend that trash, but you already knew that.
