Oregon Duck represents the Big Bend!!

[CrispyFishin]

If you have been anywhere near sports news this morning, you have seen highlights of LeGarrette Blount, the University of Oregon running back decking a Boise State player with a right hand after the game. After landing the haymaker, and back pedaling cowardly (helmet on the whole time), he doesn't stop. Afterwards, he carries on like he's going to fight the whole crowd..

This is what you might not know..

This kid is from Perry, FLA!!!

Proud alum of Taylor County High!!

..kid should be arrested and suspended for the season. What an idiot!!

[Sea Dawg]

HE WAS ONE OF THE ONES THAT EXCELLED IN SPORTS AND WAS GAVE HIS GRADES AND HE ACTS LIKE A PERRY FL BOY THAT HUNG OUT AT THE 98 BAR MOST OF HIS LIFE

[slowroller]

Needs to be suspended since he doesn't have any better home training than that.It won't get any better..02

[Sea Dawg]

What can you expect look at our Leader now

[lizbeth]

He should not be allowed to play college football, let him try out for the NFL, they don't care who let play.

[wevans]

NFL scouts have said that he went fron a #3 or #4 draft to a lucky to get drafted pick because of this and his previous problems You'll see him on the news in no time and the background will be the 98 bar

[RHTFISH]

Sadly, he should have a one-way bus ticket back to Perry RIGHT NOW! No place for that in sports!

No, we don't want him back. There's enough trash here already. All morning I've been hearing people around the office trying to defend what he did. Makes me sick.

[CrispyFishin]

..Looks like he may get that bus ticket, Oregon has ALREADY suspended him for the season!

That's one long bus ride..

[Sea Dawg]

well send HIM to the i/2 mile rise and see if he will hit one of the real men that live near there

What a piece of shit. Perhaps he can get a job as our new green growth czar.The position is now open.

Call me crazy, but what was the difference between that and what hockey players get a few minutes in the penalty box for? The dumbazz taunting him after the game will be fine. If you're gonna talk trash, be able to back it up and don't turn your back like a wuss after saying what you gotta say. The biggest deal of all this is that it was caught on tape in front of a national audience. If this would have happened in the locker room or parking lot and not been caught on tape, not much more than a suspension would have occured. It has tarnished Oregon's reputation and they are just handling the PR end of it like everyone thinks they should. Blount should have not thrown the punch....but hey, isn't football a contact sport

I wish I had some of our old high school football scraps from the mid 80's on tape......Rickards & Suwanee just about became a fight where a football game broke out

Sorry JT......Blount ain't scummy enough for that job

Because when I watch a game like that with my 6 year old (in his second year Pop Warner tackle footbal), I want him to see class on the field. It's a privilege to play college football. Problem with today's players is they are not worried about the ramification of their actions and what their coaches will do for punishment.
Agreed that idiot deserved a smack in the mouth for taunting Blount, but on the field you let him know you will be looking for him in the parking lot if he wants to discuss it further.
