AND Trask was hit high, helmet to helmet.At the least, Dan exacerbated it. His running out there like one of his players was fuel to the fire. To be clear, I don’t mind the fightin and defending our QB. I’m good with that, but the HC running around out of control isn’t a good look IMO.
FYI, TONS of punches were thrown. This was not just jawing.
It was a late hit, no doubt.
I don’t think it was 3-4 seconds after he threw it. Pretty sure it was 2 steps IIRC, but def late.
I really like it that our coach actually gives a schytt about the players. Phukk anybody (that means you Mr. F-bomb) who doesn't like it. Go Gators! Beat the dwags!Wow. I expected the SEC to do more than that. Coach deserves the fine, he earned it, and glad he did it. I applaud him getting the team fired up and sticking up for his QB.
So our 2 guys miss a half and a half while their guys only miss one half.
Sounds fair, right?
Where's the half game for the SOB that hit a defenseless QB in the face...late.
If that hit took place with the ball still in Trask's hand it would be targeting. Launched, struck defenseless player in the head/neck area. The fact that it was late (he took two steps looking right at him release the ball) and he didn't pull up exacerbates it. I want that damn ref suspended.

The hit was late, but it wasn't going to be suspension, the most we would have gotten for it, is 15 yards and a free down before the half.

I turned on Foley the moment he pulled the rug out from under SOS during the Darnell Dooshbag fiasco.I would like to see Strickland stick up for his coach now. I would also like to see Strickland make the case that Carter and Powell should receive the same half game suspensions that Mizzou players are getting and are available for UGA.
You think if that was called targeting it would have been overturned???
Trask was defenseless, right? By definition. You can't deny that.
He was hit on the chin. Shoulder pad to the chin.
If he had put that shoulder pad into Trask's chest or belly it would have been a late hit.
He put it on Trask's chin.
How the hell is that not a late hit and targeting??? If it wasn't late, it's still targeting.

- A crouch followed by an upward and forward thrust to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area, even though one or both feet are still on the ground - didn't happen
- Leading with helmet, shoulder, forearm, fist, hand or elbow to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area
We need to make sure Carter enters the 2nd half ready to destroy uga's o line. Somebody needs to take a sledgehammer to Carter's Firebird and spray paint "go dawgs" all over it.So our 2 guys miss a half and a half while their guys only miss one half.

it was late, we aren't arguing that portion of the hit, and defenseless (per SEC rulebook):
- A player in the act of or just after throwing a pass.
targeting->
- Launch-a player leaving his feet to attack an opponent by an upward and forward thrust of the body to make forcible contact in the head or neck area - didn't happen
- A crouch followed by an upward and forward thrust to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area, even though one or both feet are still on the ground - didn't happen
- Leading with helmet, shoulder, forearm, fist, hand or elbow to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area - lead with forearm or shoulder, but appears to make contact with chest
- Lowering the head before attacking by initiating forcible contact with the crown of the helmet - didn't happen
I assumed this.So no Carter for the first half against Ugay. Could be worse, we should be able to overcome that.
Yes, he did make contact with the chest...and the head and neck area. Did you watch the tweet I posted??? You going to say that wasn't the "head or neck area"??? Just because he hit him in the chest TOO doesn't mean he didn't hit him in the chin.
