Wasn't Poindexter a Super-Bowl-winning safety? Inexcusable.
Good point. Pull Poindexter's scholarship.

It was a stop on third and 9 in a crucial situation. I would've sent him back to the lockeroom. I don't know if he would've played for me again this year.
Don't know about gone for season, but definitely should have been benched.
True that!Um I'm pretty sure 'pull his scholarship' was sarcasm.
On the upside, he showed a better leg than Tarbutt.
. Yes, it was terribly srupid, but it was in the heat of the moment and I guarantee he was made to understood that he cost 7s dearly. It is a game played by 18-21 year olds and all we are is over the hill fansThis guy was made captain? By who? That has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever seen in my time watching football. Of course he follows it up by dropping an int. just pathetic.

Whats done is done, it was stupid and we have all done things without thinking. Refs are ridiculous and don't let players play with emotion, our players should know how sensitive these refs are after the Nova game.
Thank you Scoe. It was dumb, especially considering how stupid and inept so many refs are out there, can't take a chance. But that was hardly a passionate kick or one that should have been called for a 15 yarder. Maybe "delay of game" at the worst but this ref overreacted I think. Watching the Clemson/ND game last night and #2 on Clemson wagging his finger in front of ND receivers all night until finally warned (why warned and no flags?) and Boulware the LBer standing over people yapping after tackles and no flags, to think they called Adams penalty is ridiculous.
If your arms are as long as your neck, you'll start.Hell, pull everyone's scholarship. Put all walk-ons in. I'll even transfer to get a spot at 2nd-string TE.
Thankfully, when I was 22, none of my stupidity was on display as it is for kids who play football on this stage.
Carry on..
Youth does not have a monopoly on stupidity. I can attest to that. Love how you guys imply you've moved past it..

The refs can't make up rules.
It's an obvious penalty and one the ref has to call if he wants to keep getting game assignments.
When I was officiating - every year we'd watch an NCAA training video
on what's Unsportsmanlike Conduct. By their definition it's everything.
It was not an obvious penalty. Well it was a penalty, a delay of game and 5 yards. He didn't kick it hard and it wasn't because of a call or anger just reaction. BS call by a ref who overreacted, simple!

It was obvious. He kicked the ball once into the wall. They ignored that. When he kicked the rebound I to the stands, their hands were tied.
No spitting match here Jax, just a difference of opinion. Kind of like you saying all we are is over the hill fans. Not sure how you get to speak for we? As for the dumb, incompetent play of a captain, being 18-21 is no excuse for a fifth year senior who is supposed to be a coach on the field. You should be made aware that we send 18 year olds off to war with just a tad more responsibility on the line..

I Rescind the "", that was probably unnecessary. That said, guys get dead ball personal fouls at every level of the game. It happens. You teach from it, and hope the player forever remembers he cost you a game. You don't bench really good players or strip captaincy, imo.No spitting match here Jax, just a difference of opinion.

Diaco if to be taken serious should have given him pine time for the rest of the game and half of our next. That and a check-up from the neck-up by the medical staff. EVERY play in the game is important and the captains and upper classmen should be teaching this to the under classmen. A dead ball penalty is simply unacceptable at any level of play in football.
OMG I didn't see the ball kicked in the stands MY BAD. Only saw the one off the wall that's why I was wondering why everyone was so crazy about it. Dumb A** deserved the flag at a just awful time. Sorry about my position I was wrong.
Guys, it was a brianfart. Let it go.
I agree with this. If the ball doesn't bounce to to the tip of Adams toe, he doesn't kick it. He wasn't seeking out the ball. It just came to him. His mind was off, he reacted. That said, it was stupid, stupid, stupid.Guys, it was a brianfart. Let it go.
