College Football

College Football season has finally started and it has started with a BANG...


The Oregon Ducks has suspended there starting running back and best running back LeGarrette Blount for the rest of the season. Which is sad because it brought his draft ranking all the way down. When asking a top recruit team, they said Blount went from a second round pick and the second best running back in the draft, to an undrafted running back.

For people that don't know what happened, well hear is the story.

After Oregon lost..well they didn't lose, they got embarrassed by Boise State, Blount went to shake hands with the other team, like after every game. When leaving the field, Boise State defensive end Byron Hout hit Blount shoulder pads and started taunting him. Blount then punched, well sucker punched Hout on the chin and went on a raging rampage. He started pushing his teammates when they were trying to hold him back. While he was coming off the field, he starting getting into an argument with the fans; he then charged to the fans, but luckily, the guards stopped him before he got to the fans and made a bad situation worse.

Blount later did apologize for his action, but an apology wouldn't help his situation at the moment. It was hard for the coach to tell him the he was suspended because it is his senior year, so that mean this is his last year playing and he messed it all up. At least he gets to keep his scholarship and so he will be able to complete school and graduate. Also he is still able to practice with the team, just not play.

Boise State also has stated that they will punish Hout for his action, he will not be suspended, but he will be punished. Hell he will always be remembered as the guy who got sucker punched for talking smack and got knocked out also.

It is a sad story, but he has to face the consequence for his actions. I mean it is sportmanship week in the NCAA and that does not have sportsmanship written on it at all. I hope he has learned from it and every other college player learn from it. I wish LaGarrette Blount all the best right now, and hope he can come through from this whole situation.
