ofcourse it's way too far, but the article's making him sound like an innocent bystander. He should've publicly appologized and let it be known that it was an execution mistake, which he did not. EDIT: The original article, not the advocate article by Carl.
it wouldnt have been as bad if--- it wasnt Auburn/Tubby it wasnt against Dorsey it wasnt done by a guy that Dorsey put on his a$$ earlier a flag had been thrown they had apologized sooner if ziemba apologized but, it wouldve been far worse if-- LSU lost the game Dorsey was out for the season/career. death threats are stupid, and im sure quite emotional for chaz (and especially his father). but we dont live in columbia. the chances of anything happening are next to nil. especially since auburn is far from La. the most they have to worry about is some drunk coonass throwing a bottle in two years.
One thing that stands out to me is regardless of who made the initial error in blocking....Ramsey could tell BEFORE he hit him low that Dorsey was engaged high.If that cut technique is going to be taught...so be it...but the player going low needs to be aware of his block and react accordingly.Seeing a teammate making a blocking misstake by not releasing Dorsey...Ramsey could have gone high also ,essentially double teaming Dorsey.By diving at Dorsey's knee while knowing he was engaged is ,in my opinion ,Ramsey's fault.
death threats are stupid. mr ramsay comes off as a whining bi*ch. shut up and go smoke a cigar or something.
I don't know if this has been brought up, but where's Tubberville in all this? I know he said right after the block that AU doesn't teach it, but if this kids getting death threats and he and Dorsey are "good" then ole Tubberville needs to stand up and set the record straight.Tell us what has happened and whats been done to prevent it in the future and then tell everyone to drop it..kinnda like when Mike Gundy went off.... These are kids, 1st and foremost...death threats..threats of any nature are BS...its up to the adults (parents/coaches) to teach, protect and punish (if needed) these kids. They still have a bit of growing up and maturing to do at this stage of the game....The right from wrong compass isn't quite set
Death threats are over the top, but don't give me that crap about it being accidental. They did they SAME THING to a Clemson DL in the Peach Bowl. I'm not sure if Ramsey was involved in that play or not, but it just goes to show that an acceptable blocking scheme at AU.
It does not seem like either Ramsey, father or son, has learned anything from this. Stuff like this happens in life. He looks guilty as sin. Offers no apologies and just harps on how he's the victim. I'm afraid because of how he's handled this the press will continue to highlight this play into next year because it was against a star player who could have lost millions in the NFL. That alone should wake the father up to how this could have effected Dorsey. Of course they are only focused on themselves.
I can't agree with the death threats and such, but I'd laugh my arse off if Ramsey somehow gets linked to being involved in any way with his former HS QB (the Ole Miss almost signee arrested for selling roids earlier this week). I'd be willing to bet he doesn't have any connection, but it would be funny if he did.
