I’d prefer he face the consequences for his actions and get any help he needs to grow and become a better person. He’s a person, not just a dadgum ole Bammer, bee-ruther!!Dude has documented himself having anger issues and being unstable. I hope it haunts his ignorant azz for life. POS!
Both of these videos need to be investigated by the proper authorities………….:.::
Figured with the Alabama fans wanting to start rumors of someone getting beat up Saturday, it would be good to start this thread to show evidence of Jermaine Burton assaulting a girl.
Yeah it is a low quality video. It would be a weirdly specific thing to fake in any way, but the fact that they tweeted a screen capture of a Tik Tok is weird.
Weird none of their boards are talking about this
he opened the door himself.. twice,, so yeahA situation like this is worst case scenario for the SEC and Bama, even Tennessee in a lot of ways. This exact scenario, or the opposite, with a Vol fan punching a Bama player/coach, is why there are rules and fines for rushing the field. Imagine how much chaos ensued on that field.
Is Burton a scumbag for this? Absolutely. But I’m not sure the SEC, or anyone for that matter, wants to start chasing down these incidents, because they don’t want to open that door. It’s a liability nightmare for both schools and the SEC.

I agree with you in principle, but this is how they’ll see it: “If we REALLY want to make sure this never happens again, we’ll up the ante and make the school fines much higher, so the school prevents people from rushing the field!”On the contrary... I'd think the SEC office would want to come down HARD on Burton in order to demonstrate that they will in no way, shape, or form allow a player to lay hands on a fan (unless, of course, the fan instigates). In both cases it looks like Burton was the instigator and I'd think the SEC will want to make sure something like this never happens again...
Tennessee is getting fined 100k for the fans being on the field. The SEC doesn't want fans rushing the field. This is one reason why.On the contrary...

Under that scenario, the fans lose. The SEC doesn’t want the liability, so they’ll put it all on the school, forcing Tennessee to make sure no one ever rushes the field again. And I don’t think any of us want that to happen.
Correct. If it went to a legal battle, while there’s certainly a case to be made vs Mr Burton, he (and the University of Alabama) could turn it right back around and say “Tennessee’s security team’s job is to protect the players on the field and ensure their safe exit and they failed to do that.” It’s not as black and white as we may want it to be.Tennessee is getting fined 100k for the fans being on the field. The SEC doesn't want fans rushing the field. This is one reason why.
