Yeah there were 4-5 that started it that were sitting in section 111 on the front row. I saw a fan go down and talk to them about it because it was completely uncalled for. Our players were also doing it there late by flexing/jawing to their sidelines. Players talking trash to each other is going to happen, but as a fan, show some damn class.
My son & I were 2 rows right behind those goobers.

I had just turned to my son & said "That's what Criminal District Court is like", when the fan went down to have a word of prayer with them. I don't know what his prayer included, but their misbehavior did not continue.

Players trash talking is somewhat expected, tho unfortunate. Fans trash talking is just stoopid.

It was incredibly stupid being as they were about 1/4th the size of the players. They think they can get away it being fans until another Ron Artest incident happens.

DHarrington is out for the year - ACL, I hear
Datrich harrington or Brendan harrington??
Excellent question. The reporting just on the surname "Harrington" has been very confusing. Maybe someone who knows the absolute facts of both situations can clear it up for many of us who don't know and for the few who think they know but really do not. ;)

Its Daetrich. On today's press conference, Clark said Daetrich was out for an extended period.

That’s correct... he said they are waiting on a “diagnosis “....... not good.

That makes more sense to me now. I was having trouble wrapping my mind around "game-time" decision as announced on Sat. to torn ACL/out-for-the-season on Monday with no activity in between. So as of mid-day today, Shawn was still waiting for the radiologist to read the scan and consult with the ortho-surgeon. I'm sure Shawn knows by now where things stand. Daetrich's loss would very def. hurt our attack.

With Daetrich being out, it really puts our streak of consecutive years with a 1000 yard rusher in danger of being broken. Right now we have 4 remaining scheduled games with possibly 2 more if we keep winning, none of our remaining backs even have 400 yards on the season so someone will either have to step up in a big way or we lose the streak.

No offense man but This seems like a really ridiculous thing to care about with Daetrich potentially being gone for the year.

According to some posters, he is gone for the year and that is extremely unfortunate and I feel for the young man. That being said, it is always next man up and those men need to step up. App mentions that streak in every media release, so the powers that be must find it impressive. It is a good indication of the type of team we are and the resilience of our players and the next man up attitude. Daetrich isn't the first, nor will he be the last, of our featured backs that gets injured late in the season and has to miss the rest of the games. In previous years when this has happened, our other backs were still able to keep the streak alive. Hopefully that continues. If my post came off as insensitive, I do apologize as it wasn't meant that way at all.

My heart goes out to Daetrich if he is out for the season. He’s fought the injury bug every year but continues to battle back. Prayers and speedy recovery for all that’s injured.

Good post. I think I’m just a bit edgy these days. I hope I wasn’t being too sensitive myself

No worries, it's all good. I have no problem being called out if my posts don't make sense.

The kid from the Campbell game nobody seems to remember will have 150 rushing yards the next game he plays. What was his name? Guess nobody will know until Saturday.

Per WSJ:

- Thomas is okay, hospital trip was just precautionary, all things came back negative and is back at the field house. Currently day-to-day

- Harrington is out for "an extended period of time."

- Huff seems okay but is questionable against Coastal

- Cooper should be back for Coastal

Did anyone ever confirm what Zac's actual injury was?
