Ed Oliver going off on coach. Top DT draft prospect. (1 Viewer)

[Noble Saint]

It wasn't a big of deal. I'm sure none of the players were walking around saying Oh God!! Where's a jacket!! Sour grapes and a very immature coach.

You are sure? Well then there you go. You must be right. Pink kid going to the NFL not playing for his scholarship or his teammates is on the right because he needed a winter coat on top of his sweatshirt in 50 degree weather and refused to follow team rules repeatedly. Terrible coach...

A spectator taking things meant for people playing.

Unless it stretches, that coat was too small to fit anyone wearing shoulder pads.

I remember when players just did what their coaches said to do, no questions asked.

Yea, it’s best to never question anything, just do whatever people tell you to do.

 

[DeuceisaBEAST!]

Kick him off the team. Let him watch the games from his warm couch.

Who cares what he does. You go after your coach when you broke the rules and refuse to play and help your team then hit the road.

Exactly

Is there also a simple rule allowing coaches to put their hands on a student athlete?

Coaches put their hands on student athletes all the time. Try another excuse.

The dude just killed his draft stock over a coat... an overcoat at that!! He’s sure to drop to the end of the second round

You don't think coaches and gm's look at that and wonder if he will be a problem player? I'm not saying he is. I don't follow college football, so I don't know the kid. I would think that a good front office would at least question it. Just look at what happened here with Brandon Cooks or Jimmy Graham. You think Payton would even take the chance of bringing in a locker room cancer? This would be a red flag at the least.

Not at all. His only problem his ENTIRE career was his coach physically touching him to take off a jacket. Other than that he's been the standard at Houston.

And you excuse physical abuse, but draw the line at a guy putting on a jacket.

Oh neither party was in the right but this will hurt recruiting more with elite players from Houston that might want to help the home program over Olivers draft stock.
Nothing is guaranteed but he's the closest thing like Aaron Donald to enter the draft in years.

Physical abuse? Are you serious?

 

[Optimistic Ozzy]

Physical abuse? Are you serious?

Hey, whatever works for whomever. You know how it is these days.

What physical abuse are you speaking of ? Can't wait to hear it.
