Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 1230926"] I don't think it was a push. I'm also not of the opinion that coaches shouldn't or can't touch players. As long as it's not violent or intended to embarrass the player, which this wasn't, I'm okay with it and I was okay with being on the receiving end of it during my sports days. I had a high school football coach grab my arm and yell at me on the sideline because I didn't get my head up to locate the ball during punt coverage. He came up to apolobize to me in the locker room and I told him that I didn't even remember him grabbing me. This isn't a situation like we've seen with the Rutgers coach or whoever that guy was that grabbed a player by the throat. I understand the point that Jim has to watch himself while the cameras are on, especially with the oversensitive nature of our culture these days, but I honestly don't think there would be a story here if somebody tried to run it.
