Well, we've heard LSU's side of the story from multiple witnesses. Has aTm even admitted that this kid works for them? I think this says a lot.

But let's just say it was an out of control situation, and somehow Krags was accidentally hit by the kid. It still doesn't matter. Actions have consequences, even if they weren't intentional.

I’ve not read any post on this > reading. But my wife has PD and is slated to undergo the “DBS” implant when all the stars align just right.
It’s a battery pack inserted in the chest wall that’s hooked up to fiber like leads that go deep into the brain.
I can’t imagine the possibile serious complications that might be caused by someone punching a person in the chest who has one of these devices in there anatomy!
I don’t know the chances of this dude being aware of coach K’s situation, but we all “...take our victims as we find them,.,”! In other words, one is no less culpable or responsibilie if he causes great harm to someone who is more vulnerable because they are more fragile than they appear.
That dude might be in store for some “time -out” Huntsville, Texas style. I can assure you the doctors who did the procedure on K and monitor his condition are gonna be outraged.

Are semantics your issue? Would you be happier if the guy you're responding to said "A 20-something kid punched an older man with Parkinson's" instead of "attacked"? I'm really trying to understand if you have any angle here other than just your typical contrarian schtick.

Say your buddy is jawing at somebody and you are pulling him back away from the situation. He finally turns around and is walking away.

Then somebody runs up behind you and starts yelling back despite you defusing the situation. Would you push them back away?

Cause that is what happened

found it, Replay confirms the ruling that Craig is a d-bag.

what it looks like to me is the fisher kid is probably Craig's babysitter. Supposed to keep him from being an idiot, so he chased him across the field to our sideline. was pushing Craig away and then got bumped himself, turned and punched Kragthorpe.

Unfortunately for him, it appears to be exactly what happened according to the video.

Do you know how bad LSU fans act in their stadium to visitors of the opposite team?!



That’s 100% fake news. It’s actually just the opposite. Even in baseball, aTm fans are known as the absolute worst when it comes to hospitality and friendliness. Tiger fans are referenced every year as being the best. Go to every game and have been to many in College Station - your (aTm) fan base is 2nd most inhospitable only to West Virginia.

why is Kragthorpe sprinting after Damyune Craig as Cole Fisher tries to usher him away from LSU's sideline?

Krag is yelling back at Craig for sure. But that doesn’t merit him getting punched by some A&M punk

It certainly dilutes Krags being a "victim" a little but can you blame him? It's hard to check your emotions during/after a hard fought game but you do it as a part of your profession. BUT, insert Craig showing no decorum and talking trash and you have an untenable situation. All roads lead back to Craig and everyone else needs to be cut some slack.

That video definitely calls Kragthorpe’s version into question. There’s no way one can watch that and conclude Jimbo’s nephew started anything there

It’s 100% possible, even likely, that all parties involved have no idea what actually happened after Craig ran towards the LSU bench

Emotions, fans on the field, exhaustion, etc
