Umpire in Bethune Cookman-Alabama State took a big shot today.    Hope he is doing well.

I'm thinking if I saw that from a wing position, I'd have to flag him...seemed intentional....totally unnecessary.

Definitely looked like a flag and an ejection to me. Deliberate contact.

The worst part about this whole video to me is that after the incident occured, the defender in question gets mad and just walks away. Doesn't check on the status of the official or anything. I might have to flag that as well, seemed very unnecessary and the kid showed no remorse.

It's called leaving the scene of the crime.

If I go down from an obvious forearm shot like that and I don't see six flags on the ground around me, my crewmates are getting their BUTTS chewed out. Obvious targeting worthy of a flag and ejection.

But if you did have 6 flags, I would hope you are looking for a new crew, cause that is too many people watching you and not what they should be watching.

I'd hope for maybe 2 - but I'm not all that handsome, so maybe you would get more. Don't know...
