High school players purposely targeted this referee with dirty hits

[TheSideBet]

Poor guy refereeing high school games in San Antonio and made a bad call previously. Players said it was 'an accidental contact'.

I'm sure tis is how a few of us feel the day after opening weekend of betting.

[chico2663]

they should be kicked out of highschool football for this year

[Codone69]

maybe a few less "homer refs"

[greenhippo]

They should be kicked out of the damn school. I bet their parents are gutter trash pieces of shit as well.

[jjgold]

white or black??

[seaborneq]

Paul Cruze did it too. Threw the ball into the ref's man's region.

[jtoler]

lol Im sure they felt he deserved it, he did something foul Im sure.

[TheSideBet]

The second hit was really uncalled for. Launched with the crown of the helmet 'targeting' moreorless.

[The Kraken]

Looks like he was ok

I'm surprised the skinny safety didnt dislocate his shoulder

To keep the integrity of the game, they should both be done with footballfor the year, or this could become common place

God knows i wanred to do that a few times. But I knew I would never see the field again,

[stealthyburrito]

Superintendent of the school district made the call to the sidelines that the ref wasn't following the script.

[kmarinouofm]

wonder what the line was on this game.. kids might have been trying to pick up a penalty to either open up the backdoor or protect the other team's lead

[jjgold]

just get rid of guys like this

throw out of school

[TheSideBet]

throw out of school

Most likely these sort of guys will end up failing out anyway. Own worst enemies. Absolutely should be booted from the team though.

Yes he will be in jail where he feels most comfortable

Bush league.

[MeatWad]

He will learn eventually, either from the smoking end of a pistol, the bloody smack of a baseball bat, or the clank of his handcuffs. His dad must be a spineless loud mouth clown with no integrity.

[Roadtrip635]

Public high school, they don't have money in the budget to pay off the refs. Gotta "persuade" them the old fashioned way, send a message to the rest of the refs this season.

[TheMoneyShot]

All I can say is... for the guys in this forum who have played high school football back in the day. You do remember the refs who clearly made constant bad calls... and were known for doing it? Word gets around fast. There's always a hot shot ref that is "dictating the flow" on inconsistent calls.

[jjgold]

basically teach the kid a lesson and make him take a bullet in the leg

We are too easy

[The Kraken]

agree JJ

How many bullets would you have taken?

I would look like swiss cheese

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Uncalled for. What if they broke his neck?

I wonder if the coaches told the kids to do it?

exactly, that is why rationally I'd have to see the refs "bad call" for myself.

[teaserpleaser]

High school football must be shitty in San Antonio was like one brotha on the field in that video....on another note was that a female ref...A lot of hair or was that a hat?

Northside ISD and the University Interscholastic League are looking into a play in which two Jay football players barreled into a referee during Friday night’s game against Marble Falls.

Late in Jay’s 15-9 loss at Marble Falls, one defensive back ran from 7 yards away into the back of an official watching a run play unfold 9 yards in front of him.

After the referee fell to the turf after the first hit, another player standing to the right of the referee and several yards away led with his helmet and dove into the official.

Both players were ejected. Northside ISD athletic director Stan Laing said the video was “very disturbing.” Laing said the district is investigating the sequence of events leading up to the play, and the UIL is aware of what happened.

“The question of what instigated that is what we’re trying to figure out,” Laing said.

Before that play, two Jay players were ejected on separate plays. The incident occurred with about a minute left in the game, according to Marble Falls coach Matt Green.

Marble Falls was looking to gain the yards required to extend its possession and effectively run out the clock and called for a handoff toward the left side of the line of scrimmage.

must have nailed his mom

[Foxx]

Maybe could have got away with the first hit as accidental. The second hit will seal their fate though. Could feasibly be a criminal assault matter too.

[existential]

mad world

[Art Vandelay]

Heard ref is looking into the criminal assault angle. The intent is so blatant why not!

[MUHerd37]

Hopefully they never get to play high school football again.

[ByeShea]

must have nailed his mom

Thank you.

I refuse to judge either player until this potentially explosive scenario has been ruled out.

[jjgold]

If the kid is black he will get free pass
They always do

[newguy]

No excuse. Regardless what led up to that there is never an excuse to blindside hit someone trying to do their job. If he did something to deserve to be hit like that, do it like a man. I doubt those little shits ever graduate but I would be waiting there when they did and put them in the grave in front of their family. I seriously can't think of anything more pussy than that type of hit.

you just gave the very reason why their would be justification.

All depends on this bad call.

[JMobile]

Ref should prosecute. Straight up criminal charges, easy.
