New Story: Gallman says hit was dirty, doesn't remember much after "going to sleep"


Oct 24, 2016, 11:47 AM

 
Gallman says hit was dirty, doesn't remember much after "going to sleep"

Clemson’s Wayne Gallman hopes to return to practice this week, and he hopes he’s cleared to play against Florida St. this Saturday. If he plays, he also hopes he remembers everything that happened.

It was a BLATANT TARGETING!! BLATANT!

Gallman was intentionally targeted by that idiot, and I KNEW that those morons from NC State would be laughing about it on their sidelines. This is CR3P! I support Gallman's statement.

You want to take a cheap shot at your opponent? Then you had better watch your back, because what goes around, comes around.

I would not have any issue with a DOUBLE CRACK BACK BLOCK on Wright. He is a DIRTY PLAYER.

The ACC officiating crew that officiated that NC State game should be SUSPENDED for the REST OF THE SEASON!

perceptions of justice.

The idea that two wrongs don't make a right has done a lot to keep men civilized over the years. It seems that an angry passion, now normalized by a leading political figure, is coaxing many to eschew that basic moral tenant.

The idea that something "wrong" is "right" is irrational. It's either one or the other. But logic seems to be less and less important as the months go by.

This pansy #### viewpoint is actually new to society. In fact what you refer to as barbaric is exactly what kept civilization intact not the opposite as you suggest. This experiment with simply locking up a murderer and releasing him in 15 years has served as no deterrent at all and even less for rapist. You can eat off the streets of Singapore where they cane you for littering and murder in Saudi Arabia is the lowest in the world, as is other crimes in that country. Do I advocate Sharia law, no but we as a society have lost the balance we had up until only a few decades ago.

The post I was responding to said two "wrongs" equal justice. To me it sounds like you are saying crime should be punished more thoroughly for the good of society.

That's a different argument. You could easily make an argument that it was right to punish a murderer or rapist more than they are currently being punished.

But what we are seeing lately is people justifying clearly evil behavior just because it's us vs them. That type of behavior is a symptom of less civilization and less rational thought.

Re: or it may be a symptom of perceived injustices everywhere

It doesn't make sense for a person who is angry about injustice to want more injustice as a remedy. No clear-thinking person would think that "wrong" or "evil" or unfair behavior is appropriate an any situation. Justice is about fairness and making things right, not simple revenge or tribalism.

R@ping a family member of a rapist isn't justice. Murdering the child of a murderer isn't justice. It's injustice as retaliation.

If the NC State player didn't mean to hurt Gallman, which is possible, and we let a mob decide that it's proper to intentionally hurt the NC State player, then we have just witnessed a prime example of problems that lack of civilization brings.

Wanting another player to get hit very hard is one thing


Oct 24, 2016, 12:50 PM

but hoping that a football player intentionally injures someone is awful.

I say let them box in the ring at the end of the year. I don't care about the violence. Violence is fine with me. It's the cheap-shot, dirty play mentality that should be beneath us. Hurt someone the clean way. Pancake him, truck him, burn him for a touchdown. Don't go for his knees like a coward.

Letting players decide when to take other players out of the game though? It would lead to chaos. A group of guys deciding on their own, without due deliberation whether or not other people deserve to get injured is not a good situation. Men need rules to function so that they can prosper and be happy. Especially when dealing with violence. I think we are forgetting that.

Re: Read the study in logic 'The Prisoners Dilemma' and get back with me***


Oct 24, 2016, 2:08 PM

Ok, let's discuss then. I made one error and should have clarified the Iterative Prisoner's Dilemma. From which the second point in Axelrod's analysis:

""Retaliating
However, Axelrod contended, the successful strategy must not be a blind optimist. It must sometimes retaliate. An example of a non-retaliating strategy is Always Cooperate. This is a very bad choice, as "nasty" strategies will ruthlessly exploit such players.""

In the game of football, this is easily transposed and manifests as: if team B consistently plays dirty against team A, there must be a consequence whether by retaliation or otherwise by team A.
A football team can not be an Always Cooperate if it expects to win (or at least avoid major injury).

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Read the study in logic 'The Prisoners Dilemma' and get back with me***


Oct 24, 2016, 7:25 PM

An example of a non-retaliating strategy is Always Cooperate. This is a very bad choice, as "nasty" strategies will ruthlessly exploit such players.

That is the exact opposite of the truth for football. Retaliation gets penalized more than the initial act. Nearly always. Retaliation costs wins. Not retaliating, and instead focusing anger towards winning, is always superior.

Anyone who watches football should easily see that.

Teams that consistently play dirty should be dealt with by the refs or the league and sanctioned accordingly. Your theory isn't designed for or compatible with football. Football isn't anarchical like international relations.

And you know Dabo would say your post was not only wrong but ridiculous.

#8 for N.C.

Exactly...I agree to wrongs don't make a right, but this is how it works in sports. Think about baseball, if a pitcher hits someone then the opposing pitcher is most likely going to retaliate...no different in football. And while it sounds harsh what WG said, it's how things are dealt with on a football field. And unfortunately since the refs didn't do right by the call and eject him, someone on our side should've cleaned the dudes clock.

Just like I defend Boulware against overly judgy remarks, I don't like to see people assume hits are dirty just because they are helmet to helmet, especially on a running back who is rapidly changing direction and posture. The hit on Gallman isn't close to the level of what Fairley did to Kyle Parker or what Suh does in the NFL every so often.

I think its a better policy to leave accusations like that to the coaching staff through the proper channels.

Indeed. The only reason it was a helmet to helmet hit was because Gallman ducked his head and lead with his head at the last moment.

Was just an unfortunate play and nothing was dirty about it.

But it was, by rule, illegal.

We've been over this and disagree, so be it.

However, tackling that way is destined to lead to injuries. Both for him and others. He made zero attempt to tackle the RB, and instead tried to lay him out using only the top of his helmet. That's bad bad form and shouldn't be celebrated by their coach.

It doesn't have to be intentionally dirty to be wrong.

Thom you're completely misrepresenting what happened. If Gallman doesn't duck his head the defenders helmet doesn't even touch Gallman. Gallman gets a shoulder into the chest.

If you can't see that/refuse to accept that fact it's no wonder you don't understand why the penalty wasn't called.

No, I am not


Oct 24, 2016, 12:43 PM

The defenders arms are to his side he was not making a tackle (or if he was, he certainly wasn't in the correct position).

I do think it is important to note that this isn't one of those head on situations that occur where a ball carrier and defender collide during the tackle and the RB's helmet is lowered to make contact. The rule, IMO, should be rewritten to exclude those, because as it is written even those would apply.

In this case the defender was coming in from the side with his arms down, and his helmet forward. It was precisely the sort of form that targeting and spearing rules are intended to stop. The simple rule is don't tackle with your helmet, and he did.

You saw it. You can argue it wasn't intentional and I may well agree with you. But it was wrong, it was poor form, and it led to a direct helmet to helmet collision.

Again, I know you and I disagree with it being called targeting. But I can't imagine you really think it was good tackling form and should be considered the right way to try and tackle.

Turns out that's exactly what happened, but only because he KOd Gallman and the ball fell out of his limp arms afterwards.

I won't go so far as to say the hit was "dirty," but it was an illegal and dangerous hit and those type of hits lead to injuries like this - whether intentional or not.

The NC State defender hit WG in the ear hole with the crown of his helmet. It was a classic case of spearing, it was entirely intentional, and should have been a 15 yard penalty and an automatic ejection.

Gallman himself stated the ACC office confirmed it wasn't targeting.

It's amazing you guys are still trying to argue a defeated argument.

the hit. I don't care what the head office says, that hit could be used in a course called "Proper Targeting Technique." It was textbook regardless of what you or the ACC say. I know you disagree and that's fine.

Where is the word Intentional?


Oct 24, 2016, 1:10 PM [ in reply to Re: Glad to get him back. Could have done w/o that last quote. ]

Intent has very little to do with most penalties.

Most players don't mean to grab the facemask or interfere or be offsides or chop block.

the NCSt player freakin' LED with the crown of his helmet!!! If there is incidental contact helmet-to-helmet during a tackle, there is no penalty nor should one be assessed....but this is different....the defensive player led by practically diving headfirst into the runner!!! No call was made and unfortunately no protest filed by Clemson (as of yet) but how statements by the NCSt head coach and assorted wuffie players haven't convinced you they targeted Galman to injure him and get him out of the game only serves to heighten the garnet&black view with which you see the world---and thats not to metio Galman's own words................Do us all a favor and just shut tfu about this issue.

I trust, despite Coach Swinney's ethical Christian approach to living, someone will take it upon themselves to even the score on that same wolfpack player when the Tigers venture to Raleigh next season

college football. I can see how the refs on the field may have missed it, but there is no excuse for the replay officials. That dirty targeting hit could have ended Wayne Gallman's football career.

IMO it was NC States plan to find a way to get WG out of the game. I have not seen next years schefule but if we play them I hope we pound them with some of hardest hits by a Tiger. I am not advocating any dirty play. If I am Dabo I would show the hit on WG every day. I hope we play them next year and I hope we beat them by 70 plus points. I do not want anyone to get injured but I want NC State to remember the day they played Clemson in 2017.

Go Tigers!

NC State is in our division. We have always, and will always play NC State every year unless they switch up the divisions.

It was definitely dirty and definitely a 15 yard penalty.


Oct 24, 2016, 12:32 PM

I'm still not sure if it was targeting or not, but it was spearing:

What is spearing?

"A penalty called when a defensive player makes a tackle that leads with the crown of his helmet into the offensive player. If the initial contact occurs at the top of the helmet, the tackle is illegal. Spearing is a 15-yard penalty against the defense and an automatic first down. The penalty is considered a player safety issue, as hits that lead with the top of the helmet often result in injuries."


This rule has been around forever but for some reason is never enforced. I guess enforcing old rules isn't as good of PR as making up new rules (targeting) and calling them any time someone breathes on a quarterback.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I can't see how targeting doesn't apply


Oct 24, 2016, 12:36 PM

It meets 2 necessary criteria:

1) Forcible contact to the head/neck area

and

2) Forcible contact by the crown of the helmet

Our RB ducking doesn't change those facts, and while you are right that spearing also applies, there is no ability by the replay official to review for spearing (I dont think), but targeting is certainly reviewable.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-20yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I think you're technically correct but the way I understand


Oct 24, 2016, 12:43 PM

it, targeting relies on the area of the player that the defender hits, whereas spearing just relies on the positioning of the defender himself. So the refs can always say "well he wasn't trying to hit his head" whereas with spearing, who cares, the defender put his head down and didn't see the target, so that's a penalty.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sure, spearing should apply


Oct 24, 2016, 12:45 PM

The rules for targeting may need to be rewritten, but as they are now there is no "It's OK to hit them in the helmet if you were intending to hit them elsewhere" caveat.

Oct 24, 2016, 2:23 PM

Wanting revenge and actually carrying out the revenge are totally different.
I think the majority of people would have this same feeling of wanting revenge on someone that has hurt you.
All that being said if Wayne would have been able to come back in the game, I don't think he would have been looking to actually hurt Wright physically. Right and wrong would have taken over.
I think he would have hurt him by laying down 150 yards and 3 TD's.

I like the fight that Wayne is showing and he needs to bottle it up and take it out on FSU. That said, I don't blame him for what he said and I would be feeling the same way if I felt like someone was trying to hurt me intentionally. Go Wayne Train and run over the rest of the ACC!

I am guessing that all of y'all that are upset with Waynes comments have never played a contact sport at a high level. His comments show he has got a mean streak in him. If somebody did that to one of my teammates they paid for it. Just saying...

Oct 24, 2016, 5:38 PM

Football is a violent and "nasty" sport. I think if many of you heard what is said on the field and in locker rooms you might have second thoughts about this sport in general. With that said like anything else it's his opinion on a an action that could potentially affect him long term. None of us have a right to tell this young man how to respond when someone could have seriously injured and or killed him. Unconsciousness is no joke and he has right to be angry!
