Blount Suspension YouTube

Legarrette Blount has been given a SEASON suspension for this Boise State Oregon Football punch video. Legarrette Blount’s suspension is for the season, as LALATE and fans had expected. The Boise State Oregon Football punch by Legarrette Blount of Boise State’s Byron Hout was after Thursday’s football game. If you missed the video earlier on LALATE, here it is again:

Blount tolds press Friday:

“I just apologize to everyone that was watching this. I just apologize to all of our fans, all of Boise’s fans. I lost my head. … A few guys wished me a good game, a few guys pushed me and I just kind of lost my temper.”

Kind of?

“I couldn’t have envisioned anything worse than this right here. I tell you what. That will never happen again. I will never lose my head again.” Certainly that will be the case now. “I don’t know what kind of disciplinary action coach Kelly has in store for me, but whatever it is, I’m ready to take it full force”. Blount went at Boise State’s Byron Hout, then went after Ducks’ teammate Garrett Embry (who had tried to stop the events). Then, Blount allegedly conflicted with two police offices, two stadium guards, even Ducks Scott Frost.

Oregon tailback LeGarrette Blount slugged Boise State’s Byron Hout with a sucker punch, after Oregon’s 19-8 loss Thursday night. The teams had been talking all night, and it looked like Hout was flapping his jaws after the game, but no matter, you can’t go slugging people. Such a volatile mix is why some coaches want no part of the AFCA request. Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy has talked repeatedly about the combustible mix of emotions before a game, how it only takes one thing to be said and one reaction for a firestorm to hit.

It was the performance of a lifetime. A big-time coming out party for the new guy in charge and his disciplined, workmanlike team. It was a beautiful, proud performance by the Imperial Stormtroopers from the University of Oregon. Every pass was caught. Every quarterback read was perfect. The Ducks' players were in control, focused and sportsmanlike. It was Boise State 19, Oregon 8. Also, it's so long to Ducks running back LeGarrette Blount, who should be kicked off the team today for what he did on Thursday at Bronco Stadium.

Blount punched Boise State's Byron Hout in the face on the field after the game. Then, Blount put a fist to the helmet of Ducks' teammate Garrett Embry, who was trying to play peacemaker. And what we have here is a low moment that can not be greeted with tolerance. Blount left the field struggling with two police officers and two stadium security guards, and with Ducks assistant Scott Frost being towed along. There was a hostile brush with a Boise State fan, too. In the end, there was chaos and volatility all around this team, courtesy of Blount.
