Reminds me of the "Football Town Nights" skit as far as that final lines of that skit goes:

 

[builtbadgers]

Severe consequences are in order. That is criminal.

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

That was a horrible form tackle - he didn't wrap him up. He should be indicted for that alone.

SMH

In Texas they call that Thursday.

 

[FireDaveLee]

Not good. However, I must say that I've wanted to do that to MLB umpire Joe West a few times....

 

[1983]

Not good for your football career possibilities. He will say he is sorry, blame others and get back after a game suspension.

 

[TurfGopher]

That kid made a very foolish mistake which will haunt him for quite some time. Embarrassing.

From a recent update on the 247 site:

"Duron was also suspended for the remainder of last year’s 2019-20 soccer season after a similar incident occurred on the field against crosstown rival Edinburg Vela."

Doesn't excuse the behavior, but this kid must have some deep rooted problems. I hope they get him some help.

I hope no colleges offer him. No idea if he was being recruited.

"The District 31-6A Defensive Player of the Year last season, Duron also is the Bobcats' kicker and punter and a star wrestler."

Ok. But in doing a Google search for "emmanuel duron recruiting profile", I'm not getting any hits. Maybe the services took the pages down?

No idea. That was in the ESPN story.

No link to a player profile on ESPN recruiting either. Wonder if they've all decided to strip/block him from their service for his action?

Way to literally flush your career down the tubes. There will be a lawsuit, possibly criminal charges? No colleges are going to touch him.

 

[MNVCGUY]

Scary to see a handful of people commenting on the video defending the kids actions and trying to blame the ref, sad how mixed up some people's priorities are. There is no justification for running back onto the field and attacking a ref....none.

Based on some of the other stuff posted this kid definitely appears to have some serious anger issues that need to get dealt with before he kills someone and ends up spending the rest of his life in prison. Hopefully someone can get through to him.

Jomboy w a great breakdown as always

Nebraska: "We could use a guy like Duron on our team".

 

[GophersInIowa]

His team ended up winning the game but the school decided they would not continue on in the playoffs. So his stupidity hurt his teammates in many ways.

Remember Frost won't recruit you if you say bad stuff on social media.

But what you do IRL ... doesn't so much matter.

This young man has more important things to deal with in his life right now than athletics ... hope he gets the help he needs.

I was thinking the same thing. Later he dragged the ref down some stairs by his hair.

Impressive response by the school - that's the way to make it a teachable moment.

Chuckle of the day right there....

NE took a recruit who was indicted but not yet tried for child porn. This character would be considered a model recruit compared to the other guy.
