EXCESSIVE ..... You bet!

I have a hunch  this will come back to haunt OSU football. A student running on to the field is not new. Choking him and throwing him to the ground ...... is new.

In the stadium were 100,000 spectators, MANY of who had spent the afternoon and evening, "tailgating" .... eating and drinking, a Saturday tradition, in many ways, encouraged by the university.

I do not think this treatment was warranted, especially as an exhibition put on by the Strength Coach at the University. That body slam could cause some permanent damage to the young man. Coach Meyer joked and made lite of the occurrence and brushed it aside.

STOPPING the boy is one thing BODY SLAMMING him, full force, to the ground, to me, is very much EXCESSIVE and reflects negatively on the coach, and the entire university and staff.

I imagine we will hear more about this ....
