Tre Dez Tackle -- Cruel Hit

Not that it really matters now, but it was a nasty hit. TDG was hit by 2 Ole Miss players . One went high, the other low, from different directions. The guy that hit him low "speared " TDG's knees with the crown of the helmet. ( I guess there are no targeting calls below the waist ). It was a border line dirty play. So you can "chip tackle" with the crown of helmet, but you can't chip block a defensive lineman or an offensive lineman that is barreling towards you to block you. Yes, they called a chip block penalty by a defensive player on an offensive lineman that was about to run him over in the La Tech game. TDG's long legs were a big target for that guy that speared him. I know that this is hard nosed football and there can be shoe string, low tackles, but leading with the crown of the helmet into the opponent's knees is pretty bad. I hope TDG's injury is not as bad as it looks.

Tackling at the knees is as old as football itself..... 5'10 DB will more times than not go for a low tackle, not saying it's right but it is legal.
It's a tough, cruel game. Hopefully, Green will heal and be better.

This is football and he’s a tall runner. You don’t hit that dude high, you go low and chop him down. Basic football play and it’s exactly what every defender has been taught to play the game. He’s an elite athlete and that’s how they are going to attack him in the NFL.

Some of that is just a risk TDG takes by playing FB and not basketball.
He can’t get low enough to protect his knees.

Players have been saying they would rather get hit high over getting hit in the legs. Thats the trade off for trying to limit concussions. Wasn’t a dirty play just an unfortunate one.

He put the crown of the helmet on him. You can’t lead with the crown of your helmet.
And no circumstance

That’s how you get paralyzed…..
And, it was an intentional dirty hit.
