Who has a problem with Pruitt’s “tug” on JG facemask (poll)

[Brak]

Just curious to what the board thinks. Personally it didn’t bother me at all, maybe I’m in the minority on this one but to me that was a coach making sure he had his players undivided attention.

So bizarre to even question that. These kids play a game where significant collisions happen on nearly every single play. Yet somehow the fact that his finger tugged on his face mask briefly crossed a line?

Zero issue with what Pruitt did

I am personally surprised that it stopped with the infinitesimal tug. I figured he would drag him all the way to the bench. He showed awesome restraint.

Not gonna cast a vote. It seemed as though JG wasn't looking directly at coach Pruitt and Pruitt wanted his full attention thus the tug to get his attention. A simple matter really. there's already been far worse ass chewings displayed on VN today and previously

And that's what you want with a coach. I think he handled it precectly.

Hypothetically speaking.... If the roles are reversed and Bamas backup QB does the same thing with the same result how does Saban react?

It was Murder!!!

JG brought that on himself.
He single handedly took us out of the game.
A chance to get it to 8 and you go rogue.
The biggest game of the season and you play hero ball.

Pruitt reaction is warranted

Clearly he pours them milk, bakes cookies, and reads books. Only then does he ask what their punishment should be..

Surprised Bama refs didn’t throw a flag on Pruitt for facemask

The only people that has a problem with it are the weak and sensitive snowflakes. They are the same ones who thinks that their kids deserves a participation trophies. They are actually pathetic and need to stick their kids in knitting classes

Should not have done it for his own protection, a thing like that could cost you your job in this climate. Nothing wrong with it IMO, in fact needed in this case.

I liked the poll better when it was public. At least then we could identify who the helicopter parents are.

Was JG yelling back at coach? Kinda looked like it.

So the whole board vs CuzinGreazey?

 

[Arclight]

polls ZZzzzz

I don’t have a problem with it but it wasn’t the best response either.

 

[supersmo18]

Poll should’ve publicized voters for fun

It was the absolute perfect response

Okay. Vote that way.

Sometimes people are more honest with anonymity. I wanted a honest gauge of the board’s opinion.

 

[volfanhill]

I don’t think he should have done but I also don’t think it’s a big deal.

No problem with it at all personally. Having said that, it was not very wise of him in this day and age when small incidents get people fired or sued.
