Yep.Again...he has a history. He is not entitled to feel like he can engage opposing players...but by the university excusing his other antics they look like enablers.

You mean for the player or the fan? The fan wasn't punished at all. He volunteered to give up his seat. Of course, you can always come back with he gave it up under duress from the university, but we will never know that.I would think if piece of crap is all that was said, he wouldn't be punished as severely.
He is as vital to school pride as that zorro guy on the horse. Or the kid who yanks it into the bell.God...his official statement was posted on the school website. That seems normal.
First, he didn't engage the player. Second, I agree with you that if he has engaged players in the past (which he hasn't) he should be banned from the games.Again...he has a history.

He's a big time donor. I would guess they owe him that.God...his official statement was posted on the school website. That seems normal.

He didn't engage the player? Come on man...that is exactly what he did. Some other players said the same guy did stuff like this before.First, he didn't engage the player. Second, I agree with you that if he has engaged players in the past (which he hasn't) he should be banned from the games.
It's silly to think that calling a player a piece of crap would get you banned from a game, though.
Now, outside of flipping one player off, if he has done more than that, he shouldn't get to come to any more games, but it doesn't seem he has, and he has been to a shit ton of games it seems.
Yeah, from his seat he yelled something. OMG! HE GOT IN HIS FACENSTUFF!He didn't engage the player? Come on man...that is exactly what he did. Some other players said the same guy did stuff like this before.
I can tell you right now I have not done that a pro or college game before.If the fan called him a piece of crap, then he is exonerated on my mind. He didn't do anything that one of thousands of us have done in the same situation. It's actually silly to suggest otherwise.
A guy who goes as far as to make most road trips a year doesn't give up his tickets in the season unless you're told to do it or be banned. TT wouldn't result to that over a "piece of crap" statement.You mean for the player or the fan? The fan wasn't punished at all. He volunteered to give up his seat.

I guess you work for the sports department too.Yeah, from his seat he yelled something. OMG! HE GOT IN HIS FACENSTUFF!
Right.
Have you ever yelled "YOU SUCK"?I can tell you right now I have not done that a pro or college game before.
Like I said, it annoys me that an adult male with a career and a family and enough money to give it away to a university generally can be a jackass and yell insults at college kids with at best indifference from and at worst tacit approval from the university, while the kid faces official penalties and "needs to have thicker skin."
You really have a hardon for this, don't you?
My guess is he will be at the next game. It was only reported that he volunteered to give up his seat, not that it happened.A guy who goes as far as to make most road trips a year doesn't give up his tickets in the season unless you're told to do it or be banned.

I am not defending what he said, but what I am saying is if all he yelled was "you piece of crap" it's stupid for him to be railroaded over it.Like I said, it annoys me that an adult male with a career and a family and enough money to give it away to a university generally can be a jackass and yell insults at college kids with at best indifference from and at worst tacit approval from the university, while the kid faces official penalties and "needs to have thicker skin."
Call it what you like.
No...and no.Have you ever yelled "YOU SUCK"?
Yeah, same thing.
