yeah I mean more than that. His lifeline is gone.

Is that different from what Bo Jackson went through? Bo never properly recovered.

agreed. and Iowa knew better than to swat the ball away from the center. and their QB knew better than to keep playing long after the whistle. And DeJean knows that flailing his hands around during a punt return is illegal. And Iowa fans know that throwing trash on the field, at players, and...

I saw that one too… To their “credit”, they are using this along with the thought that if he wasn’t actually calling for a fair catch, per se, then waving his hand around like an unathletic school kid being a floozy wasn’t illegal. Of course, they are conflating the rules because they haven’t...

*sigh*. I hope the NFL is paying for this guy. He deserves better.

Hurt on a Ko return down 0-35, apparently his first touch in the NFL. Someone posted video of it in another thread. Broken femur maybe, or knee. Either way his season is over. Life is not fair. Edit: Lions say HIP injury.

broken leg?

wait what??? what happened?

And this x1000. Had he not been farting around with his excessive hand motions he very well might have been lit the F up on that play. Several Gophers had slowed down pursuit.

This. You can see at least a couple of Gophers explicitly letting up, and then flat footed as DeJean makes his move, reacting late to his surprising take off after motioning that he would not. That’s why the rule is there, as the ability to feign a fair catch signal to get the defenders...

What’s really amazing to me is how “youthful“ he looks here, and then how very old and wrinkly he appeared in the after-game presser. Sith?

you have a link to that thread?

rightfully so, given the ticky tack call Nubin got for tapping the ball out of the hands of a guy still trying to move the ball over the goal line after the whistle… …and then they also didn’t call UC when they blatantly slapped the ball away from the center. Sure, that’s a “delay of game”...

agreed. Crooms displayed good hands this season excepting yesterday. I presume it was just an off day. BSF‘s drops are becoming habit.

Did Gousby do something wrong yesterday? I’d say at the very least, a wrong decision was most certainly not made, there.

Actual officials - Big Ten top officials - say you are wrong. Give it up. This one went to Big Ten brass in Pittsburgh and they are adamant about the rules and that this one was textbook. But somehow you know more than them. Nice try, tool.

dude. IT IS RARELY CALLED BECAUSE IT IS RARE THAT A RETURNER FLAILS HIS HANDS AROUND EITHER FOR A FAIR CATCH OR TO GET HIS TEAMMATES AWAY AND THEN TRIES TO ACTUALLY RETURN THE BALL. Good grief.

yes. but since it didn’t result in a game changing play, it didn’t really matter, and only folks trying to make a lame point care.

Too ironic.

yeah. just awful. trying to play the victim card. For the most part, it’s, sadly, working. Pathetic, fraudulent, politics.
