I have no idea what view you are talking about. I re-watched the game last night. They showed one view, which pretty clearly shows a punch to the groin. This one:

It was a thigh punch. Thigh. Punch. As in "on a thigh." As in "not in the junk."

Oh no! If you take the S, T, H, A, M, another M, E, and R from mine, I'm an eel!

I disagree on this point.

Not sure how you can say that.

Ului was just "diving for the loose ball." Seriously though, it was a cheap shot

Oh, I'm not talking about whether he did right or wrong. I just value accuracy.

Steelhammer

9/15/15 5:34pm

Ok. I guess my point is its semantics. Junk, thigh, either way it was cheap

I don't know. I wonder sometimes if BYU needs to fight back a bit more. Set some

I agree. The attitude "they're Mormon so they shouldn't fight back" is annoying

I think I would have to save my decision until there was a specific situation.

I can't find it quickly, but there was a thread with links. No cups.

CosmoK

We were supposed to wear them (football and baseball), but as you mentioned,

Steelhammer

9/15/15 5:44pm

Cups? no, to much chaffing while running.

TheWookie

9/15/15 10:45am

I see your point...But I've been hit there while wearing a cup, and it...hurt.

Steelhammer

9/15/15 5:39pm

It's definitely below the belt. Looks very close to a nut punch to me.

Yeah after looking at that it really does look mid thigh to me and I have never

That's true. Probably shouldn't do it. Or at least make sure that it's worth it.

Ever been punched in the inner thigh? It's 100% worthy of a full-body shudder.

makes sense....why would he punch in the nads knowing there is protection there?

Dude? Where do you keep your junk? What do you think he connected with?

I certainly don't keep it a bit down my thigh. But then, I"m old-fashioned.

Steelhammer

9/15/15 9:44pm

Does it really matter? It was the intent that is the malicious thing.

cougarnerd

9/15/15 10:12am

Maybe his intent was to give the guy shiatsu. That's not malicious. That's kind.

Steelhammer

9/15/15 9:46pm

Just accept that it was a hit to the balls and that's what was deserved.

Deserved?! is THAT how you want to play the game?

Steelhammer

9/15/15 9:55pm

yep totally agree

smartup

9/15/15 11:35am

It's a moot point. He was close enough to cause the protective reflex.

maizecoug

9/15/15 11:40am

I'm not denying that. It was not, however, a crotch shot. It was a thigh shot.

After seeing this post, I went to the video

Medute

9/15/15 12:07pm

Yeah, I don't get it. Maybe the punch glances the thigh, but it definitely lands

I might call it classy, but I'm a Ute fan, so I have no idea what that means

'classy' is a very subjective word, and could probably be the root cause of this

Okay, timeout, timeout. Medute, BYUflynn, and bluedarts. There's some ambiguity

Good point. Although, to be honest, you do get used to it after a while...

It was a loose ball before the BYU player secured it

Medute

Totally hilarious and inappropriate -- I agree.

9/15/15 2:56pm

Yeah, I would have been pissed too, but you can't nut shot the guy

Right. Agreed. The only disagreement is that it wasn't a nut shot, but a thigh

BYU-Ite

I can't imagine that his intent was the thigh

Hey, Duchesne County isn't that far from Utah County. I don't see a problem.

By the "first angle" do you mean the one from the side opposite the BYU player?

Hey, don't knock giving someone a deadarm in a fight. It works and it's funny.

Fortunately, he didn't. Instead, he hit him in the thigh. It was an act of mercy

As well as his good fortune in not getting what he deserved from the BYU player.
