Because sending death threats to a college kid over a football game is idiotic.

I already deleted it. It was in poor taste.
Every expert Collegiate or NFL Official has said it was dirty, and they even mention that it might generate a rule change like the NFL where they can expand a late hit with intent, as the targeting rule has gotten too specific and is missing the point on injuring players.
About the 22 second mark of this
Did you mean to post this in the wolf copulation thread?
I don't make too much of the "low fives." But you can see Blackburn clearly tracking Travis from the end zone angle - and you can see how the ball isn't remotely close to Hunter. He was waiting for an opportunity to hit Hunter. He doesn't do this if it's another player. He absolutely intended to hurt Travis.
Death threats are uncalled for. Do I feel any sympathy for him? None. FAFO. Blackburn chose this.

Just read that Norvell had this rep at Nevada for cheap shots and dirty play before coming to CSU.
It is who he is.
**** that asshole - I now agree that IF there is a contract clause regarding conference realignment, we should tell them to **** off and put the series on hold until Norvell is gone.
If you look at the video in the Tweet Yak posted and then these images from Lebron, I question if it was a tag team effort - CB holds up the arms of the best player on the other team allowing the safety a free cheap shot to the midsection.
Norvell is dead to me.

So was it a bang bang play or is it not something they teach?
Exactly this. Those low-five interactions didn't necessarily feel celebratory. I noted exactly what you did - Blackburn was only focused on Hunter for that entire play. Why not make a play on the ball? Because he had one thing in mind - hurting Travis. And standing over Travis like Ali was pretty telling too.
Bang bang play? No intent? 17 or whatever illegitimate penalties? Norvell is a POS. He could fix a lot of this just by apologizing. Same with that #11 POS. Everything he's saying and not saying tells me he's dirty.
I'm sure that Norvell has expressed concern for Travis' health, which is the minimum standard for decency here. Have I just missed it?
I saw something where he kind of wish Travis well. Followed it up by saying he doesn't teach that, but it happens. Not genuine at all, imo
Aqib Talib said it best
Would not be surprised if a lot of death threats are coming from people with a little too much money on games/Heisman race
Also, looks like CSU’s PR move is working just how they planned

I think this is just another reason we’re lucky that we have coach Prime. CP emphasizes character and he leads by example too. He just plans to win. He is just building a team that will become a national championship contender. And he does it through talent and skill, not dirty plays or cheating.
That's true. Plus prime and CU has a lot of love right now from a whole sort of people
Norvell's description of the play as a "bang-bang" play is very dishonest. A "bang-bang" play involves a play where the ball is in play. Just because the play was live or close to dead - that doesn't make the play a bang-bang play. The defender has to make a play on the ball. Defenders are not allowed to go head hunting just because a ball in thrown in the direction of the receiver. The play happened nowhere near the ball.
Norvell knows this. But we don't know why he is lying. Is he covering his own ass? Or is he just covering for one of his players.
I think it’s funny here with the part about Norvell out-coaching CP. I think while the rest of us, including myself, had thought the game was lost, Coach Prime clearly taught our players to not give up. Norvell didn’t out-coach Prime. Prime is 1-0 against CSU because of coaching.
“Bang-bang? More like bang————-bang.
I think that Norvell has a chance to show some leadership. As the leader of the team, shouldn’t he just come out and say that the hit on Travis Hunter was wrong? And then suspend the player or do something to send a message that this is important? Otherwise it just continues to look like they coach the players to do this, whether it’s true or not.
“I reviewed the play, it’s a play that happens sometimes," Norvell said."It was a bang-bang type of a play. That’s certainly not something that we teach"
So - kind of a contradictory statement - "there was nothing wrong with it, just part of the game, but we don't teach the part that was wrong, if there was something wrong, which there wasn't. Oh, and the penalty negated a great play."

It’s true
Rental car all the way, no way my rides go anywhere near that cow farm
Yeah, he doesn't give a **** what fans think but when players of this caliber are speaking out against him, has to hurt.
