Blount deserved the exact punishment he got, but Hout deserved a one gamer for instigating the incident. I consider Boise State to be a bush league program if the coach cannot afford to have a player miss one game.

Kudos to the Oregon coach for instituting the suspension, but shame on him for the poor preparation he provided to his team. They were not ready on either side of the ball and he has to take responsibility for that.

Took guts to suspend him for the year. Good on them. I wonder if when they release a statement that it’ll be more about him nearly going into the crowd and the Artest like repurcussions.

Didn’t Blount start the trash talking before the game? That’s probably what Hout was pointing out and Blount couldn’t handle it.

I didn’t see any of those fans tap him on the shoulder and he went after them too.

Blount will be ashamed all the way to the bank. I saw disrespectful victor getting what he deserves. In “old school” times tapping a player on the shoulder and gloating in his face would be an act that would be expected to be returned as it was. Granted, it was horrible sportsmanship by Blount, he obviously is very intense and prone to loosing his temper. If he is able to mature and control that temper, his redirected intensity will make him a ferocious competitor. Football is a violent sport, shit happens. If football doesn’t work out, I’m sure Dana White would welcome him into Ultimate Fighting.

I just hope that Hout, being from an area known for white supremest, racist groups, was only fueled by competitive contempt in using his big, ignorant mouth to get a classless, “off the field” dig at a defeated opponent.

PAT – Very eloquently said. What a moron

I can’t see him going for more than 1 game because next week is Purdue who stinks….after that Utah and Cal which they’ll need him for. and winning is what it’s all about. If I were the coach I’d say 4 games min.

So much for the AFCA’s pre-game handshake to encourage sportsmanship.

I know it’s just a first game, but based on their performance, what is Oregon’s offense going to to against Cal, UCLA and USC ?
