ah. got it. Regardless, I think the punishment is to steep. I don't all the facts anyhow, its just how I observed it. Trash talking before a game isn't a big deal in the pros, but I guess college is different. Sometimes I think collegiate sports are so ridiculous.
Also, why doesn't Boise state suspend the guy who talked trash during the game? Maybe a game or 2? Boise state looks bad imo.

Don't worry, according to SI.com the coach of Boise State will "spend time with Hout during the week to help him learn from the incident."
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/football/ncaa/09/04/blount.punch/index.html?cnn=yesWhat a bunch of homos at Boise State. "Spend time with him to help him learn from the incident" - man, if the roles were reversed, every Glenn Beck wanna-be would be on this board harping about black people, being soft on crime, liberals, and blaming it on Obama.

If Boise State actually believes there as good as certain individuals on here, they should do what Archie Griffin did: Call up USC and schedule a game. USC would probably enjoy playing them.
Or does BSU not believe they're as good as Virginia, VT, Idaho, San Jose State?
I'd imagine they'd love to play a team like USC, but the trouble is teams like USC don't want to play Boise State & especially NOT in Boise where they're 64 - 2 in the last decade.
After beating Oregon it's going to be tougher to lure other Pac 10 teams or the like.

Just stop supporting the charade that is BCS top level football. These aren't students (for the most part), so lets stop pretending. Players like Blount should not be in college, and with the hundreds of thugs and redneck whiteboys coming in contact with one another, I'm actually surprised this doesn't happen a couple times a month in BCS football.
Support FCS football, real students (for the most part), damn good football, equally hot cheerleaders.
Sounds like the nearby 1-A team kicked the crap out of your sorry 1-AA squad in the local opener...

ya'll are racist. that white boy got what he deserved. You disrespect, you gonna pay. The last 200 years the black amn has been beaten like dogs, now yall cryin over this?
I knew it! If there was this much attention paid to one football player punching another (which happens hundreds or thousands of times every week in major college football), it had to have been a black football player punching a white football player.
BSU doesn't care where they play anyone....they beat them home or away
Not to worry everyone, he's been suspended for the season

sorry if this was already posted.
The word out of Oregon is the young man from BSU, slapped him on the shoulder and said " good game, Nigga "
Oregon did the right thing. They suspended (ended the college career) Blount for the rest of the season. I'm not sure many college teams would take this deserved action against their star, so kudos to Oregon. Boise State, on the other hand, has done nothing to the kid who deserved to be suspended for the way he harrased Blount. 74 Oregon kids handled the pressure and harrasment just fine. One kid screwed up. I say those are pretty good odds for the Oregon kids. When is Boise State going to levy something against the idiot who slapped on Blount???
The hicks from Boise State got all the "homer" calls, the ESPN folks are getting lots of attention making this into something more than it is (shame on ESPN for using it for their own profit), and all the rednecks just love seeing their boy smack talk, hassle and slap on Blount. I hope Blount popped his chin good. Shame on Boise State, shame on ESPN, and yes shame on Blount for "biting on the BSU bs". But, good on you, University of Oregon, for taking fast and significant action, even though it has cost a yount man's college football career and potential NFL career. And for all you hypocrites out there, I suppose you've never seen a college football player punch out anyone before.
