I think we are just frustrated because coaches have gotten away with a look of **** this year and then this happens (looking at you Kirby Smart).

If you want to label this as an "integrity of the game" issue, the focus on the integrity of the game.

Does anyone have the video of the SFA guys doing synchronized injuries against us in 2010?

Too many posts for me to know but im sure the obvious has been discussed. You fake an injury to slow a team down who is going fast and not allowing you to sub...which really wasnt happening here. Shoot the guy catching the pass is even taking time to celebrate his first down, not running back to the line for the next play. They might not have been going slow but this wasnt a situation we couldn't have subbed.

And coaches and players know the rules, if elko wanted to slow the pace, it would be easy to signal after the next play for a certain guy to immediately go down. One of the guys on the tackle could just stay down and not get up. Not really hard fellas.
Nothing looks more foolish than tradition to those who have none.

It's ridiculous how the SEC is fining Elko $50,000 for allegedly feigning injuries when schools like Ole Miss and Tennessee regularly get away with doing that.

The true answer is that potentially injured players should no longer be eligible to play in the contest.

You've a week to heal up and try again.

Lmao **** all them little *****es who can't stand the thought of a team that isn't one of their precious darlings having some success. **** all of them. I hope the conference ****ing implodes.
For good measure: **** LSU, Arky, and Texas, too.

No that's ridiculous. They get cramps or the wind knocked out of them by falling on their back. They should be able to return.

What? What/when did it happen?

During the Arky game. We were charged a timeout because if it and it was obvious the player was faking. Forever amused over what y'all get worked up about.


Happens in every single game. Some teams even get to hold our guys without a flag being thrown. Sankey's ass is tu's playground.

Wow, that's the true answer? So Marcel gets the wind knocked out of him on the first drive of the game, and we're on QB2 for the entire game because of a very minor but momentarily excruciatingly painful injury?

I am fine with injured player having to sit for the remainder of the drive, but the entire game is just silly.

Is it about player safety or not?

I'm not sure "wind knocked out" or cramps prevents a player from …let me check my notes… walking off of the field.

Elko should send payment of the fine in the form of all pennies with a note saying "Suck it! Snakey"

Good Lord....some of you guys are embarrassing....

It was fake....OF COURSE it was fake. Hell, I'd be willing to bet if you had the player at a table at The Chicken having a beer he'd admit it was fake.....

Pay it. Move on.

Explain why Chappelle's backup was still in the game 20 minutes later for a fake injury.

All of the perpetually embarrassed Aggies have refused to address it.

Tell me you have never played football without telling me you have never played football (or any sport, for that matter)

Have you never had the wind knocked out of you? Or a really bad Charlie horse?

Defensive scheme, perhaps? Backup may have been playing better?
Chappelle may have been winded, not injured?
Could have been for any number of reasons.....or all of the above.

He was winded after being treated in the medical tent and sitting out for 20 minutes? The backup you can't even name was a better option but totally NOT for injury reasons?

Yeah we're the embarrassing ones.

Stanley is a POS that cannot be trusted. Very simple. Everything we do in this conference will be examined closely. We will never be given the benefit of doubt, easiest preseason schedule or receive the officials judgement call (blatant holding). He stabbed us repeatedly in the back. In ain't changing until we do something about it. Big10 & ACC would slobber all over the chance for our footprint.

There was no fake injury. Our guy had a mild issue, but didn't think he had enough time to get off the field. The fix for that is to go down so the refs blow the whistle. If he had tried subbing himself out, there was a high risk of him not getting off the field fast enough and us getting a penalty. There's also a risk that his sub wouldn't get in and get in position in time.

I like the HUNH offense, but it does complicate the game in ways that didn't use to exist. For us, this was a classic example of "damned if you do, damned if you don't."

Sure do wish I could find the video proving that he was told to fake the injury, can't find it anywhere.

Saturday night we roll. Sankey publicly reprimanded Coach Elko. If this doesn't galvanize the team to show up and play to defend Coach on another level,.....nothing will. Tomorrow you see perfect offense and perfect defense.

I could care less if we did it or not. EVERYTEAM does it.

I do remember as a couch telling a kid to go down because his bell was rung, he was hurt and trying to stay on the field…if it was ever on video …..it could look like I am yelling at a kid to go down to stall for more time….but all I was doing was trying by getting him to down was help the referee see the player was hurt and stop the game so as a coach I could enter the field of play.

I think you're missing the point. It doesn't matter if he was told to go down after the fact. He was already trying to get out of the game after the previous play. When you watch him run his coverage, you can tell he wasn't up to full speed. I don't know why this is even a thing. Seems pretty obvious he wasn't at 100%.

And right there is my issue with the whole damn thing. Kiffin may not have originated this BS but he damn sure utilized the **** out of it and was hardly given as much as a finger wagging by the league. Elko does this one time and gets the book thrown at him. I mean, I'm the first to admit Jimbo used to use the fake injury. A lot. We've seen it time and again from other teams yet somehow we're the first to get nailed for it? F you Snakey. Go find the bottle throwers from last year and show me you're actually worth an ounce of respect
