The wussification of college football is well underway it seems...

Sanders is finished there and he hasn't even started yet.

They side with the player over something like that they are asking for more problems

Thank god he was wearing his helmet

A bit of an over-reaction here in my opinion. A warning would have made more sense IMO.

i mean short of an ear hole slap I see no issue. more likely to hurt his own hand

IKR?

I mean, the whole reason they invented the facemask was so the coach could grab it and turn your head to look at him when he's talking to you

WTF? I lost count of the number of clip boards coach broke over our helmet when someone fucked up.

Sanders then slapped the player's helmet. According to the report, the player became "visibly upset," took off his helmet and pads and left the field while some of his teammates attempted to console him. Sanders said he tried to speak with the player but let him walk away after seeing the player's reaction.

You have got to be fucking kidding me.

Witnesses said the incident was surprising, but many players noted they had seen "far worse disciplinary actions" in high school sports. All the witnesses said they didn't consider the slap to be physically harmful and that it didn't appear to be done with intent to hurt the player

.
Gee, no shit.
