While we can all agree that this behavior is not acceptable, did such excessive force have to be used to take him off the field? Coach Schlegel clearly had the young man stopped, and then decided to forcefully slam him down onto the field...then with the assistance of event staff, the student was taken to the sidelines where Coach Shlegel clearly choked the student by grabbing a handful of his shirt (as seen in the pictures). Yes, this behavior needs to be punished...but let the Franklin County Municipal Court handle that. There is no need to humiliate and make a physically violent example of this student who clearly made a very bad decision.
