I commend that none of our player for punching Jones the past couple years. Must of been really tempting.

i can't wait to see who/what is blamed for this player's actions

2 notable things from the article. The coach played football at Vandy, so he had it coming. Also, the player was a Criminal Justice major, so he was probably going to become a cop.

Had that been reversed, it would be all over the news!!


What an idiot thing to do- I do hope the Coach is alright and that he was given immediate aid on the sideline- looked like some just looked "down" at him..


Makes me so darn mad how disrespectful things have gotten..

That's sick and twisted.

I don't see any punches being thrown. Looks like he tripped over a helmet to me.

Maybe it was just sort of shock at what just happened, but what was up with the lack of concern for the coach. I get the video doesn't run longer so you can't see the aftermath, but the one coach just sort of moves out of the way and let's him fall. One player seemed to be running over to see if he was ok...maybe. Or taunt him, I couldn't tell.

Most disturbing thing was the lack of concern anyone else on the sideline had for the man.

To be fair, it was a very short clip. This is so out of the ordinary, they were probably mentally processing wtf had just happened.

Inexcusable. I don’t know what was said, but it looks like the contact the coach made with the player shouldn’t have warranted that sort of reaction.

There are times I see these coaches red faced and shouting right up in their face, and I’m surprised that the player doesn’t take a swing.

Anway, player deserves whatever ramifications come of this. Shame because it seemed like he was a decent student.

I don't know what's worse (I mean, I obviously do), the punch or the lack or reaction from the players and other coaches.

It was pretty all over the news as it was.

Kid needs his rear end handed to him.

Mark Richt has lost control of the TSU program.

Ex-Tennessee State player charged with felony after punching assistant coach

He's been rightfully charged with a felony. I'm waiting for him to accuse the coach of making a racial slur.

Why? What will that do for you?
