This really ticks me off.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Apparently, seven overtimes was not enough.
After No. 22 Texas A&M outlasted No. 7 LSU, 74-72, in an NCAA record-tying seven overtimes that took 4 hours and 53 minutes Saturday night, the battle raged on, and the fallout may continue Monday.
LSU offensive analyst Steve Kragthorpe, 53, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2011 and has had a pacemaker in his chest to stimulate his brain since 2017, was punched in the chest by a credentialed man from the Texas A&M sideline. That is when LSU director of player development Kevin Faulk, a former LSU and NFL star back from Lafayette, went after the man, whose identity has not been confirmed by Texas A&M.
"Out of nowhere, I got nailed," Kragthorpe said in a phone interview while he drove back home from the game Sunday afternoon. "I didn't go down, but I clutched over. I was like, 'Damn, he got me right in my pacemaker.' Then it started fluttering like he jostled it."
quote:
Kragthorpe was checked out by Texas A&M team doctor Jesse Parr and emergency medical personnel at the game.
"I feel OK, but not as good as I was," Kragthorpe said. "I felt like he tore something in there. I will be seeing my neurologist in Baton Rouge on Monday."
quote:
"I don't want to press charges," he said. "I don't want to pursue it. It's one of those things that happens in the heat of the moment." But Kragthorpe said Texas A&M may be held responsible if his pacemaker has been damaged or if he has been injured.
"I didn't appreciate getting punched in my pacemaker," he said. "I'm not feeling good right now.
I have no idea who the guy is. But he was wearing an A&M shirt, and I think I saw him signalling during the game. He was credentialed, so A&M should know who he is."
quote:
Kragthorpe said he was at first walking across the sideline to say hello to Texas A&M linebackers coach Bradley Dale Peveto, who coached at LSU from 2014-16, and other A&M coaches Kragthorpe knows. Then he saw Texas A&M wide receivers coach Dameyune Craig yelling and going up to LSU coaches, including head coach Ed Orgeron. "Dameyune Craig started the whole thing," Kragthorpe said. "Just trash talking and yelling and screaming a bunch of crap."

Hope KF knocked this dude's block off.

I get that the little pecker is his nephew so he doesn't want him sent to prison but Jimbo needs to man up and at least offer a formal apology to Krags.

Aggy has been dying for someone to replace big brother Bevo. Time to review their application for rival one more time?
Posted on 11/25/18 at 5:39 pm to Gris Gris
Yea, you can’t call it a rivalry just bc you punched someone with Parkinson’s. We still beat them the past 7 out of 8 years. Guess they have no other rivals-honestly nobody cares about them so they have to claim someone as a “rival”. Sad for them. They won so kudos to the their team, but there is no reason to punch a man that is already down. Faulk won’t be disciplined bc he did the right thing. End of story.

Dude needs to go to prison for that shite. Typical Aggie though.

I love Kevin Faulk.

"It's unfortunate this situation happened," Faulk said Sunday in a phone interview. "It got out of hand. But I was just behaving as my mom and dad raised me. This guy hit Coach Kragthorpe in the chest. I just stepped in. It just happened.

Exactly why I didn't want Jimbo at LSU. Trash.

It's Jimbo's nephew.
He should press charges.

Sec better fine the crap out of a&m
Posted on 11/25/18 at 5:52 pm to Gris Gris
What a piece of trash. I saw the video of him talking to Jimbo about it while they were walking into the tunnel, and it got me pissed off at Jimbo too. Suddenly Jimbo stops and turns back, as if he is looking for whoever his nephew got into an altercation with like going to confront that person.

Krag should 100% press charges.
Hitting someone in the pacemaker can kill them, should be charged with attempted murder.

I hope this becomes an issue that is not forgotten.

I wish they wouldn't have pulled Kevin Faulk off of that little thug punk frick. Seriously, I know it happened in the heat of the moment, but why would this little punk just hit a grown man? He seriously could have killed him.
A&M is trash..

Somebody find out who it is and DOX the POS
Posted on 11/25/18 at 6:10 pm to Gris Gris
I hope he does press charges and Texas A&M should have to pay for any damage to his pacemaker and injuries resulting from the assault. That Faggie POS scumbag. And D. Craig must be a complete jackass. His taunting bullshite started it all. Glad he was fired by LSU. He was a lazy arse here when it came to recruiting, too.
