Calloway ejected

[whobethis16]

Who cares it's a contact sport. Omg he hit me boohoo. Tackling a person is worse than throwing a punch at a person with a helmet on. Get over it

Boo hoo, the guy said some words that made me mad so I had to punch him 5 times. That's a helluva lot worse than being mad that he punched someone.

He also hit his face mask first.

There wasn’t just “words” thrown.

Get over yourself or watch the WNBA instead.

Akron playing dirty and had it coming. Get over it

Definitely lacked the grit and class of Ball State.

Wah wah wah, 45 point lead.

Were you this mad at Jonathan Wade when he hit the Florida guy in the facemask first? Would you have defended the Florida guy if he responded with 5 punches? Highly doubt it.

 

[GulfCoasterVol]

it happened in the same game on the other side

Correct, watching the replay....later in the game an Akron player was repeatedly punching someone in a pile that was being held or constrained by other players toward the end of a play..... A much more yellow cowardly act. No one has whined about that.

No need to get on our moral high horses here. The kid is a KID. He lost his head. We've all been there in one way or another. Let him pay his debt to the team and staff and move on with things. It's not like he abused a woman or shot someone's dog here.

Exactly. What he did was wrong by any measure and his conduct deserves corrective action, not an execution. He let the guy get to him and acted very inappropriately. If he had exhibited this kind of behavior before and failed to learn from his mistakes, then I would understand the lynch mob. But as far as I saw, he screwed up and acted in an embarrassing way. Don't tolerate it, but, fix it and move on.

My point is , anyone who does this needs gone .

My point is your point is dumb. If players were “gone” every time a punch was thrown there would be no football.

Go watch the replay and notice where the guy's hand was prior to Callaway starting to punch him and what he was doing with his hand. I was a lot more upset with Callaway before I saw it.

I was wondering. Had not really noticed him before. I was thinking maybe UGA.

Just because I don't think that Tennessee guys are immaculate God's gift to humanity and can do no wrong doesn't mean I'm not a fan. The fact that people can't differentiate between that are delirious.

I didn't see anything. Tell us what you saw.

No. But language like that and the condemning way you've approached the discussions... casts a lot of doubt.

I'm critical and far from "delirious". Akron took some dirty shots. The players noticed it. The coaches noticed it. The UT media noticed it. And a lot of fans noticed it. The only person trying to deny or excuse it that I've seen... is you. So who is "delirious"? And what might your motives be?

32 seconds.

Keep watching and notice how Callaway's helmet is sitting afterwards.

It was really stupid on his part since you really can't hurt a guy with a helmet on by punching him. If he wanted to respond with a dirty play then he should have waited and found an opportunity to cleat a hand or calf.

That ear hole helmet punch can be devastating

 

[VolsSportsFan]

My point is , anyone who does this needs gone .

If he gets kicked out of multiple games for it, then maybe. But not after one incident.

I don't condone fighting in a ballgame. However I think Calloway will learn from his mistake. He will sit for UF and likely not dress. I'm not sure what took place on the prior snaps but the kid for Akron definitely did something. Calloway had enough and lost his composure. It is clearly a teaching moment .

 

[Hubbard]

See below.

You saw "see below"?

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

I don't understand this "tough guy" posturing in this thread. It's not about the punches AT ALL.

It's about letting another player taunt, bully, cheap shot, whatever you into letting your team down. Much less a team you're hanging 50 on.

It's about a season of discipline and mental toughness working toward a goal, not about "he hit me first or insulted my Mom" so "I have a right to respond." The goal is to be there for your team, not prove "you're a man."

I swear some of you guys never got good coaching.

 

[sjt18]

Sorry. Should have been see above. Video at 32 seconds. Then look at how Callaway's helmet is sitting afterwards. He shoved his hand under the face mask into his nose and eyes hard enough to almost push his helmet off. Punches don't hurt. What that player did... does.

Not going to lie. I took a few dirty shots in my time. There's a dumb way to do it... Callaway. And a calculated way to do it that sends a message.
