Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Let them play. This targeting rule sucks.

 

[BruinVol]

So targeting to the waist now?

Crown of the helmet

 

[utvolmaniac]

Such a BS call and rule

 

[yourstruly23]

Crown of the helmet

Soft

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Might as well make this two hand touch..

 

[BruinVol]

This targeting **** is stupid.

Not really
that’s the kind of hit that gets the defender hurt badly

 

[MEDVOL]

LB better start raising his heading before he breaks his freaking neck.

 

[jordan4vols]

LWS asked about Pruitt being forced to wait on Plowman or Boyd for staff hires—

I think they are ok..

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

So targeting to the waist now?

Tackling by it's very nature is targeting. Dumb.

 

[Z06VolinWV]

So targeting to the waist now?

Apparently so?!? Such BS!

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

This game is getting pussified.

 

[eVOLve]

Pussy sport

 

[Girth Brooks]

Not really
that’s the kind of hit that gets the defender hirt badly

Then maybe he should do something else that has less contact, like bitching on a message board, or being a water boy.....

Give em 15 yards then but stop kicking players out of games for hits like that. It’s dumb af.

 

[RiotVol]

I think targeting just needs to be a 15 yard penalty like a face mask

 

[Smokey123]

Targeting has never been just to the head or neck lol

 

[utvolmaniac]

And listening to Herbsreit is painful. Ugh!

 

[engineerVOL]

It’s way too punitive. Needs to be a warning first.

 

[KB5252]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. If you don't allow a defensive player to put his head down then do the same for the offensive players. Be consistent, if it's dangerous for the defense it's dangerous for the offense take it out of the game for everyone or no one. JMO.

 

[eVOLve]

Like thats just natural to lower your head when your that low. If you got your head turned up that low, could get a ****in neck injury.

 

[BruinVol]

Now that I can get behind for sure.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Exactly. Us younger fans have jack sh**

Maybe someday you will, and when you do..don't take the good times for granted.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Targeting my ass

 

[nashvol1]

If Skalsky hit a RB there would have been no review. We are almost to the point of 2 hand touch for QBs.

Not true

Head up means neck injury is much less likely. Head down is the issue
