JT Barrett hit by a cameraman?

Submitted by BeatOSU52 on November 25th, 2017 at 5:12 PM

CBS halftime just mentioned that Urban Meyer is demanding a full investigation into a cameraman intentionally hitting Barrett before the game which was how he got injured , or maybe it was just hitting him at some point during the game ? “I’ll find out who that was” says Urban Edit: it was before the game is occurred it seems

It's not funny. If some guy attacked a player that is awful. If the reverse happened and it was our guy and we thought an OSU cameraman attacked him we would be rightly up in arms.

Not attacked this is fake news and Urban wants to use this as an excuse to say “if Barrett were not hurt pregame we would have rolled Michigan”. Just like he lobbied for the playoff in 2006 at Florida he is trying to create an excuse for this closer than expected game. I hate Urban and wish nothing but the worst for him for the rest of time.

You're going to be disappointed when you listen to Harbaugh's post game presser where he calls the lifetime contract 'fake news'.

1. Urban

2. Only sad fanbases sit around and complain about officiating year after year when they can't make the basic plays they need to make in order to win. Transcend it. Win the game. Stop making excuses.

“Victim” JT Barrett says it was an accident. The only prosecutable offense I can see is Jim Delaney colluding with refs to steal as much playoff money as he can. But regardless Michigan loses today we move on and work harder for next year.

If it's an accident, then it's unfortunate and just an accident. Some whispers in twitter that it was seen to be deliberate. I hope not, and if I'm wrong I've jumped the gun. Still too bad, though.

He was so hurt before the game that he couldn’t even play in the 1st half. Oh wait he did and looked damn good in the 2nd qtr. This is such bullshit. Fuck off Urban.

I was right behind their bench on the 40. Refs had to blow the whistle about 38 times after every commercial break to get them lined up. Should have called that sideline warning delay of game.

Actually, I think Urban is saying that it was during the pregame warm-ups.

Supposedly, JT was already nursing a sore knee, then a cameraman ran into it during the pregame, and the hit during the game sealed it.

Urban is upset that so many non-football related personnel are allowed to crowd the sidelines and causes things like that to happen.

Sounds like an accident. Barrett's knee was already a little dinged up before today, then a cameraman accidently ran/fell (?) into the knee during pregame warm-up to make it worse, and the hit during the game sealed it.

Urban wants an investigation to see if it is really necessary to have that many non-football personnel to crowd the sidelines, and potentially cause accidents like that to happen.

J.T explained the situation and said he was fine, the fake news OSU media is trying to push some agenda that there is some renegade camera man who would use a $40,000 piece of equipment in an effort to injure J.T Barrett. Meyer makes it sound like Barrett was Nancy Kerrigan, Barrett makes it sound like an accident. Chill out and eat some Papa John's Urban.

Urban is trying to stir up a witch hunt for something that was obviously an accident according to J.T Barrett. Non-story that will pollute the airwaves for the next week.
