Throw a flag on Connecticut
Connecticut high school football teams will set a record for kneel-downs next season. That's when a rule goes into effect that will suspend coaches for one game if they win by more than 50 points.
Hope this never comes to Virginia or any other state. How ridiculous will it be to see a powerhouse playing the worst team in its league and taking a knee all during the second half so that its coach won't be suspended. Steve Spurrier would only get to coach every other game with a rule like that.
I always thought it was the losing coach's responsibility to do something to prevent the other team from scoring. It will be far more humiliating to play against a team that can't try than it is to lose by more than 50 points. Whatever happened to rewarding success?
Next thing they'll do is give every high school football player a trophy.
