The video speaks for itself.

That kid is probably going to see some juvenile time.

Yeah this one is all over the news, I hope the official is ok and the young man gets what is needed.

[FIDO]

According to news reports he has had a similar incident in soccer. I hope he gets the help he needs as well.

1. Agree with Chief02.

2. I found it interesting that the other team had some players go after the player who crushed the ref.

[FIDO]

I agree, no place on this site and in our country for stereotypes and prejudices. SEO, and Appalachia in general, isnt any different than inner cities, and in some aspects it is a lot worse.

He’s 18 so he’s gonna see some time alright

I agree with him being ejected but I don’t agree with punishing the team by removing them from the playoffs. The coach and players didn’t do it. One player did. The whole team shouldn’t be punished by the actions of one

[cbolt]

I agree mad dogg. Not fair for the rest of the team unless there is something we don't know like previous problems with this team causing problems. It looked like one of the coaches was trying to chase him down and prevent him from doing it but didn't get there in time.

According to news reports he has had a similar incident in soccer. I hope he gets the help he needs as well.

I can't imagine that dude also playing soccer.

He is a good wrestler. Just blew a possible wrestling scholarship.

a couple of copy and pasted facts from this article:

"Duron, 18, was charged with a class A assault during an arraignment Friday at the Edinburg Municipal Court. He was released in the evening after a cash surety bond of $10,000 was posted through O. Castaneda Bail Bonds."

“The UIL (University Interscholastic League) has made it clear to Interim Superintendent Gilbert Garza Jr. that UIL would have removed the football team from the playoffs if the district did not withdraw the team,” the Edinburg CISD statement said. “Under Texas law and district policy, the interim superintendent was authorized to move forward with the decision. Mr. Garza has confirmed this after consulting with the district’s legal counsel.”

My opinion: Harsh consequences for a harsh transgression, however I feel these incidents need to dealt with in this way. I sincerely hope the young man gets his deserved discipline from the law and I hope he get the help he needs... He is still young man who has a very long life ahead and hopefully will learn from his action....

Agreed. Very unfortunate for his team. However, I agree with the decision. What you allow, you encourage. This type of behavior can not be swept under the rug or it will continue.
