Christian getting a verbal punishment by Cle

Oct 31, 2018, 4:18 PM

Did anyone notice Cle getting on Christian in the 2nd quarter about trying to help the FSU QB up after he hit him. Cle comes over and grabs him and then as they show them on the sideline he continues to tell him do not help him up and he is intense the whole time.

That's leadership

I have a different take on the situation.

I have a feeling Christian was giving it to the FSU players pretty good after that hit. There were a number of occasions where Christian was talking a good bit of smack after a hit on the QB or a QB pressure. The hand down to help up Francois was likely just to rub it in a little further and I am sure there were a couple of sarcastic comments to go along with the extended hand. I think Cle was simply making sure Wilkins didn't get any sort of penalty for unsportsman like conduct.

I doubt that because Austin Bryant slapped him for helping up Francois.

Pretty sure you have the correct interpretation.

I noticed the incident y'all are talking about and other times in the game I noticed the refs talking to Christian too.

I think Christian is talking even more than usual this season.

Think Cle was telling him to take it down a notch.

Leadership? I have another word for that kind of behavior entirely. Demonstrating SPORTSMANSHIP is LEADERSHIP. I'm a big Cle fan and seriously doubt that he was invalidating the demonstrating of sportsmanship during a GAME (I stress here that it's only a GAME)of football. But if Cle was, I hope that Christian set him straight sufficient that he doesn't do it again. Many LEADERS would.

see the comment below for the explanation...

the context of the matter is vitally important to the actions, particularly in this case. Francois was reckless to go for a low block on Cle's knees when the ball had been recovered. Can't blame Cle for not wanting anyone to show Francois any respect when Francois didn't show any and could have caused Cle to suffer a devastating injury... Christian may not have seen it happen but there was nothing wrong with Cle letting Christian know that fsu players were going for the cheap shots...

Francois took a cheap shot on Cle (low at knees) on that bad snap early in the game. That's what started the fracas on the sidelines as Cle was NOT happy about it. The D was in Francois face every play after that.

When CW went to help Francois up, Cle and Bryant were on him about it.
