I would suspend him for the next game not for the hit but for his behavior afterwards with his coaches.

I'm sure Petrino will take your opinion under advisement.

I posted in the original thread and got called and idiot and a dumbass by about 20 people because i stated the following:
1. no fair catch was called. If Vandy teaches their return guys to call fair catches by A) Shielding their eyes from the sun or B) extending their arm horizontally in order to keep balance while running, the spec teams coach should be fired. I somehow doubt they do either of the above.
2. i saw no celebration. the announcers spoke of celebration but after watching it 20 times, i have yet to see any celebration. IF YOU HAVE VIDEO/PICS OF SAID CELEBRATION, PLEASE POST IT. I saw him get up all excited-like. When you boom someone (especially not yet knowing there was a penalty on the said hit) you will get up very excitedly.
3. the play wasn't ejection-worthy. i guess 80% of the SECrant posters have been on punt coverage teams. They must all know how easy it is to time a hit on a punt returner without being able to see the ball.
4. Horrible play by the return man. If he does the same thing on the same play against any other team, he will get BOOMED again.
5. Yes, there was an obvious kick-catch interference. Yes, he initiated helmet-to-helmet contact (such as Jarvis Landry did on Tre Mason). It is hard not to lower your head and brace for the impact you know is coming.
6. Also, if Wade doesnt boom that guy, the other arky player right next to him would have. Cause thats how you play football... Pussies.
true story

yeah...he was clearly upset about the ejection because he didn't know what he really did. He kept saying..."I didn't know coach"

Again, I've been accused of going "full retard" three times, each without one single bit of factual substance or logical reasoning.
Tell me how im wrong or what im missing.

Only difference b/w this play and Wade's was that the punt returner clearly called for a fair catch here.

Stick to worrying about AU players committing armed robberies. Petrino will take care of Wade.

First off the penalty was 100% correct. I'm not sure about the ejection, I'd be fine either way. What I don't get is the "defenseless player" bs. If the ball would have arrived just prior to the hit the returner would have been just as "defenseless" yet no penalty would have been called (perhaps helmet to helmet, although as LSU fans say about the Johnson hit, it looked like he made first contact with his shoulder), in fact, any fan base would celebrate that as a great play if a gunner crushed a return man as soon as a caught the ball.
I've returned punts, and I can assure you that you are defenseless until you have full possession of the ball and have time to make some sort of move. If you want to truly protect a "defenseless" return man then bring back the halo rule. Otherwise these kind of plays will occasionally happen.

Your statement

Do you not understand the concept of a punt return. He(the return man) is allowed to catch the ball, with either a fair catch( which he waived with his left hand) or no fair catch signal being waived. So why is he a "dumbass" for getting cracked prior to being able to catch the ball.
Apparently you don't fully understand the rules
Posted on 10/31/11 at 9:47 am to NYCAuburn
do people really think he should be kicked off that team? that is pretty harsh imo.

defenseless player. should have been ejected.

he didnt know what? that you can lay out of a punt returner a full second before the ball gets there? or he didnt know the punt returner didnt have the ball?

you should quit posting in this thread.

Oh, so he didn't have the ball in his possession? You need to go back to whatever hole you came out of.

1. no fair catch was called.
quote:I've seen video of him hoping up and down, but the cameras didn't really stay on him, so no one that wasn't there can say for sure. However, I just don't see announcers making that up. Also, his behavior on the sideline wasn't exactly commendable or classy.
2. i saw no celebration. the announcers spoke of celebration but after watching it 20 times, i have yet to see any celebration. IF YOU HAVE VIDEO/PICS OF SAID CELEBRATION, PLEASE POST IT.
quote:He made an unnecessary, malicious and gratuitous hit to the head of defenseless player at full speed. Definitely ejection worthy. Kick off the team worthy, etc.-definitely not. It was just one dumbass play.
3. the play wasn't ejection-worthy.
quote:Debatable, but ultimately irrelevant. The rules allow for him to have the opportunity to catch the kick without someone taking his head off befoer it happens. Had the hit occurred post catch, you would have a point.
4. Horrible play by the return man.
quote:Exactly.
Yes, there was an obvious kick-catch interference.
quote:Exactly.
Yes, he initiated helmet-to-helmet contact
quote:Except that Tre Mason had the ball and wasn't in a defenseless position. That is what is most egregious about it; going to a guys head that is in a defenseless position.
(such as Jarvis Landry did on Tre Mason).

Gonzo, you're right. Don't let these fools mess with you. They have nothing else to talk about because their football teams suck this year.

I don't think so. But some sort of minor suspension, sure. a half game, maybe full game tops

Funny, all the other Arky players around him were pulling up or veering out of the way.
