It’s the “Ricky Williams Rule”, regarding hair-pulling and you’ll notice half the time the officials still threw a flag. What I don’t understand is if they outlawed the horse-collar tackle because of the players getting injured, why do they allow a tackle that is exactly the same thing - pulling someone’s head downward in an awkward motion?
As for Penn State, you can’t have Joe Paterno back and I’m not sure you’d want him back the way his career ended. You hired an African-American head coach to push your program into the 21st Century and this is a bi-product of luring athletes that can return the program to the Top 20.
