Dillon Hunter thoughts?

Anyone heard about any discipline against Dillon for the headbutt? It wasn't overly egregious, but it was obvious and intentional. Horrible decision at a critical moment.

It was a stupid foul and I am sure he feels like an idiot. On a positive note, he hasn't gotten a lot better as a player since he showed up again Clemson. I bet he has a great season next year. He has come a long way.

I would sit him for at least a half, if not the whole game

Not for the headbutt itself, but for the stupidity of the headbutt. Like you said, it was not that egregious of a foul, but stupid nonetheless

I was thinking about this last night and had a similar conclusion. He is old enough to know better

Qualk on wccp said he watches all the games and he said that Dillon lowers his head to his defender's chest to gain momentum and looked like the SC player knew that when Dillon accidentally misdirected his head to the other player's head instead of chest, the player flopped the rest of way to make it worse then it looked. When I watched to replay after that it did look like that is what probably happened, but refs are always going to call that with head contact. In other words Dillon probably won't be able to do that again because of possibly hitting the opponent's head again, but there will be no suspension for the action I wouldn't think.

How do you gain momentum by lowering your head into somebody's chest? Sounds physically impossible.

I can't even guess why DH did what he did. It was well after the play and came out of nowhere.

In all honesty, I fail to see how lowering his head into an opponent gives him momentum, especially in that situation after the basket and on a full court press. I'm trying to fully grasp that one.....to me, it looked like an obvious intentional headbutt and it also looked like the SC guy flopped and sold it.

"when Dillon accidentally misdirected his head"

I must have watched a different game.

One word for Qualk: Baloney!

the stupid part was him walking to the bench acting like he was hit in the head

then he looked up at the jumbo screen and knew..oops.. that aint'gonna work. I think he was happy to get thrown out at that point b/c he would've taken some heat from the fans and players after that one had they not.

Just spur of the moment bonehead decision.. we've all done something dumb like that before and as soon as you did it you were like.. that was dumb.

Looked like a major flop by the coot player. Barely touched him.

Dumb people do dumb things and they always do it at critical times. The way things turned out in regulation, it actually cost us the game.

He wanted to get thrown out of the game so he wouldn't have to hear the smack talk?? WTH
