31 Players Suspended After Brawl

[cdt]

CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- The fight is over. The fallout is only beginning.

Thirty one players were suspended on Sunday for their role in a sideline-clearing brawl during a game between Miami and Florida International on Saturday.

The Atlantic Coast Conference suspended 13 players, hours after Miami announced that eight players had been sanctioned. Later, the Sun Belt Conference, in conjunction with FIU, said 18 players had been suspended. Further penalties were not ruled out.

Miami is officially THUG U..no more OSU jokes..this was straight street fighting out there..swinging helmets...group stompings..listen to the announcer.

"You don't come to THA U our house talkin all that noise"

"You can't come here talkin smack you'll get your butt beat"

"I hope they show up in the tunnel and finish this afterwards"

"I'm about ready to go down there take the elevator and get in this"

:chuckles: classic..

Wow... I knew the fight was bad but watching this version of it with this announcer is just plain shocking. The color commentary guy, the one with all of the ridiculous quotes is a fromer Miami WR, and needless to say he will soon be jobless. Thug U is back in full effect.

Anyone know who that commentator is? He needs to be fired and black listed from the industry.

If there was any chance Coker could salvage his job, it's now gone.

This is a black eye on the sport, but if it had to happen it may as well happen to Miami:

A) I despise the school.
B) OSU competes with them head to head for florida recruits, and usually loses. An incident like this helps the Buckeyes in their recruiting battles.

Lamar Thomas is the commentator: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/ThomLa00.htm

106 receptions 1558 yards in his career..I bet Steve Smith could break those numbers in 1 season and it took him 5.

Word is he might get fired...theres an article on ESPN.com about it. Sorry, too lazy to link it.

Lamar Thomas was cracking me up...:chuckles:

He doesn't need to be fired..
