Game Times!

You're conveniently failing to mention the fact he's lining up Dungey's chest in the 1st photo & then the plain of that target changes in the 2nd due to ED being wrapped from behind. Mind you these 2 photos are probably .5 seconds apart. I still don't think there was intent to injure or that he was "instructed" to knock ED out, as has been suggested by many here. He was looking to deliver a hard hit on the QB, nothing more. Though obviously not as egregious, I think that, based upon intent, Kendall Coleman's helmet-to-helmet hit on Wake's QB 4 seconds after he released the ball last year was "dirtier". I don't recall anyone wanting him suspended for the remainder of the season or even charged with assault like some wanted the CMU LB. I know I'm in the minority here & this weill likely get flamed but sorry, I just don't see this as dirty.

We disagree. I think it is dirty. I think Mark's shot clearly shows the CMU kid looking right at Dungey from 7-8 yards away knowing full well the ball has left his hand. He can also see a player is wrapping him up and Dungey is on his way down. That results in Mitch needing to go low to ensure a nice head shot while Dungey's knees are on the ground. I don't recall Coleman's but if you have a video, post away.

Fair enough. I can see where you're coming from. I believe Coleman was ejected & suspended for the following game, if memory serves.

I know I'm in the minority here & this weill likely get flamed but sorry, I just don't see this as dirty & am certainly not going into that game hoping for "revenge" on a college student. I think the death threats he received from SU fans were retaliation enough but to each their own.

The ball was out...he is a D-1 player. His reactions and maneuverability should be in the Top 5% of humans. He delivered a cheap shot.

Coleman's penalty was debatable and Wolford didn't leave with a concussion.

He was ejected and missed the first half of the next game due to penalty. He was flagged for targeting just like CMU's player...they were not equal.

I hear you. I don't recall Coleman's being debateable at all, it was pretty obvious. Also, I don't think injury or lackthereof changes intent. I guess I'm just not comfortable with the talk of "revenge" or "retaliation" & the threats that this kid has & will continue to receive for making a mistake in the heat of the moment. Agree to disagree, I don't want to derail this thread that should be about the great tailgates you all put on.

Time to schedule that personal/sick day for the Clemson Friday night game!

1/2 day vacation already requested and approved. Cannot wait!

The 330P start is good news for that punk a** from CMU who cheap shot Dungey, he can load up on painkillers all day before we tear him apart.

Is he still on the team?

I probably have to wait until the new school year begins in the fall.

Thanks for the info. Look forward to having a "conversation" with the young man. (Seats are section 115, row C, visitors bench)
