Two game suspension and counseling. And I'm a Beaver fan!

He was provoked. He apologized. Suspension and a talking to should be enough. I don't understand our society lately where people are screaming for heads. People make mistakes. I also want to see the idiot who provoked him punished but word is nothing is going to happen to him other than a talk.
 
overwhelming majority wants him gone, on that poll on O-live

What are you going to punish Hout for? Tapping him on the shoulder or trash-talking. If you're punishing for trash-talking then you might as well suspend the entire NCAA in every sport.
 
3 games was my vote.
 
A 3 game suspension to me is pretty hefty. The guy needs to make a good example for his team, team conduct, and him generally representing the school. Any sort of suspension should make him clear up his head but nothing done is unjust.

I'm not suggesting suspending every mouthy numbnutz. In Hockey, if you provoke a guy until he smacks you, you get punished as an instigator. Why is that so foreign of a concept here?

Wellllll....I don't really have a tail so that might suggest I didn't take him seriously.

I'd admit it was funny but he took a shot at my Beavs so I concede nothing.

:tsktsk:

lol I know you didnt take him too serious. He just likes to be an a-hole.. he is also my arche nemesis!
 
There are several factors at play here.

A) The initial Hout/Blount confrontation wasn't that big a deal. Suspend them both for a game or 2 for being immature douches, and move on.

B) Blount's subsequent meltdown is a bigger issue and deserves more of a punishment.

C) Blount is a lazy, immature underachiever who doesn't belong on the field - even if he was a saint off the field. He had earned a benching long before the first punch was thrown.

D) The vultures - from Crapzano to *some* OSU fans are screaming for blood. If the AD gives in once, the vultures will set up permanent residence. Sometimes, you need to close ranks and tell the busybodies to go fuck themselves. I would rather see Blount go unpunished, than see Crapzano get the notion he can bully the program.
 
I voted three games, but would prefer two. I don't think he deserves to lose his scholarship for this, not when he is so close to graduation/the nfl to boot. What may cost him more is that he didn't immediately clock the guy in the jaw after he got slightly pushed; he turned around and looked at Huon, listened to him trash talk, then clocked him.

Well we will find out just how liberal that alumni really is.
 
One question -- you could see some white stuff fly out of Hout's mouth when the blow landed. I couldn't tell what it was, but it was either (a) spit/unnamed white viscous fluid or (b) teeth. If it was (b), that changes things a little for me. A sucker punch srewing up the dental work, would leave me pretty PO'd if I were Hout.

LOL! I was looking for something to make a big splash for that big 3,000.. I'm glad it was you too lol.
 
I do agree though, that two should be the suspension, I voted 3 cause I think he deserved more than a 1 game, but also less than the season.
 
Hout's, douche bag face deserved a good punch, but for Blount, thats why you dont call out the opposing team before the game only to lose and go for negative yards.

A sucker punch is running up to somebody who is ignoring you and punching them. Blount punched Hout, but he certainly didn't "sucker punch" him. You can even read Hout's lips calling Blount a "bitch" right before the blow lands. Actually, Hout should be thankful that Peterson approached him and made him turn his head, because if Hout hadn't turned his head, that punch could have done serious damage.

That said, I can't see a reason for the Ducks to ever visit Boise State again. If they can't win with class, and if their video people are going to replay the punch only REPEATEDLY after the game on their video screen, let somebody else go play there.
