Police brutality lol. Is there a non brutal way to take someone down when they resist arrest without getting your ass whipped?

No, the University threatening to remove fans for speech based on its content (which was neither vulgar nor threatening) is embarassing. This is not China or North Korea.
Uhh.. how do you know they are removing people based solely on speech? There were 1,000 people chanting "Fire Currie". Why did that kid get singled out? Come on.. use common sense.

Ok, so what is the cop supposed to do? Let the drunk kid run back onto the court? Take your "Fire Currie" blinders off FFS.

I don't care if he's saying "overthrow the government"...that isn't the point. show me anywhere that i was defending an apparently drunk student???????

MY point was that after all the **** with blacklivesmatter etc...ANY appearance of too much force is not a good look.

But you conveniently left that part out of your quote...convenient.

Did you personally hear that? If so, I apologize. I was told no such announcement was made.

Looked like proportional force to me. By being a drunk idiot, he automatically loses the benefit of the doubt.

Unfortunately, the situation does have that feel to it. Let's hope neither happens.

While I agree that making one's thoughts known to those in charge is a good idea, there comes a point when it goes too far and ends up creating even more damage to the UT brand than has already been done.

We just tried to hire Greg Schiano. Pretty safe to say that tarnishing the brand has already been wrapped up.

I want Currie gone as much as the next guy, but come on man.

No way he is “having this done to people.” I’m sure that guy was being a jackass.

Is Currie pissed at Vol fans, I don't understand why he would be, do you?

I do agree with that. But at the end of the day police still have to do their job. And when they second guess their own actions in the heat of the moment, it can be a life or death decision. Wasn't here.. just saying.
