It's D2...football players are paying students as well. They have rights. Professor Longhair lost credibility with me by claiming it was an act of violence.

He strikes never one of those academic PHD's that insist on being called "Doctor"

Coach Brandon is clearly in the wrong here. He left and came back to blow his whistle, obviously in an attempt to harass and intimidate the professor and members of his class.

It’s not the end of the world, but GB deserves to be disciplined and he should leave the poor man alone. Dude was just trying to do his job and teach those kids about dirt and rocks or whatever. Lol

GB should have asked him "do you even lift, bro?" That would have shut him down big time

Schadenfraud, who defended and downplayed BGSU football leading the nation in player arrests during the Jinks era, will not stand for Brandon blowing his whistle at Dr. Wu.

That may have elicited a "come at me bro" from the professor and then the melee would have been on.

I'm not even sure why anyone studying to become a mime would need to learn about dirt and rocks. I would think the only kinds of courses the Colorado School Of Mimes would teach would be things like Simulating Being In An Imaginary Box 101 and Simulating Pulling Yourself Up An Imaginary Rope 202.

This is brilliant. The cheerleaders should dress like mimes. It would be a hoot.

Must the fans remain silent? How would the ref blow a play dead?

I'll be the football uniforms look funny - horizontal black and white stripes with red suspenders. Nike probably makes them.

I hate ESPN...But I love ESPN+...Got to watch both D2 semifinal games live. The Mimes lost by three...Brandon went for it on a 4th and 1 inside the 10 in the 4th qtr and got stuffed. That sucks

#1 Ferris State could have named the score against #4 Shepherd. With an OL that averages 307lbs and a great looking group of RB and QB's...they be a tough out in the MAC
