So about the Houston vs Arizona game
Saturday Hou was at UA and the final score was 96 to 90 UA taking it home. However that wasn’t the highlight. Lately there have been some talks and posts how because of Houston’s Aubrey Coleman getting ejected for a flagrant foul after stepping on Chase Budinger’s face which I believe from the footage shows to have happened because of Coleman being called with a charge with 9:51 left in the second half that now all of us in Houston are jerks. Look seriously, chill out. One man’s actions can’t rep a whole city, even more the team, or school. It was a game and it happened and it’s over. Now I will admit that he had to have seen him laying on the ground, otherwise he wouldn’t have lifted his leg high enough to clear his face, why would he lift it that high if he didn’t know there was something to clear cause he should have tripped instead of stomping.
Afterwards, it wasn’t apologetic, but rather smiling and laughing while he gets high fives on his way out after the ejection. Furthermore the coach not admitting to the act and trying to cover it up? As a leader he should have taken responsibility and said that the school would be making a formal apology and taking disciplinary action on that student, perhaps a suspension of a game or something idk. I remember playing sports and the worst thing I did was throw a accidental facemask that wasn’t hard or anything, but it wasn’t called. I knew and felt I had gotten away with it, but it wasn’t my fault it was the ref’s, and in football the action is soo fast I figured nobody saw it, but here the whole nation could see it. So I’m from Houston, and I’m saying, blame a player, not the city that he lives in.
If you remember Christian Laettner did the same thing to Timberlake later admitting he was wrong and did it out of frustration and go get him back for what he had done to him physically earlier.
Well they lost the game in the end, but that was a bad move on his part, kinda like the time Luis Vasquez at about 2am stomped on Gus in the living room after I had specifically told him not to trample on him. All you could hear was the “UGH” sound poor Gus made. It was EPIC!
