Beebe comments on Cotton/Jerrod-Eddie incident

[Nexus]

Poor Ben Cotton. I'm sure he wishes this subject is never brought up again. But...

 

In my conversation earlier this evening with Dan Beebe, I asked him about the play involving Cotton and Tony Jerod-Eddie from last Saturday’s game at Texas A&M.

 

For reference, I asked Beebe about the play in which a player from Texas A&M was “jabbing at the testicles” of a player from Nebraska. I used those exact words, as that is how interpreted that play.

 

Was that a play that was reviewable, and was there ever any punishment considered? Does the Big 12 condone such action?

 

Here’s Beebe’s response:

 

“Well, first of all, I think if you look at it carefully, it wouldn’t be what you characterized,” he said.

 

How would Beebe characterize that play, then?

 

“Well, if you think it was that (jabbing at testicles), we’ll just have to disagree. I don’t think it was in that manner. And didn’t the Nebraska player say he was just trying to get to the ball?”

 

Yes.

 

“Yeah.”

 

Beebe later said the Big 12 does review plays and things that happen throughout the course of a game, and will privately handle some matters with ADs or coaches, telling them they need to pay attention to particular play or actions by some players. He wouldn’t confirm or deny if that was the case with Jerod-Eddie.

 

I also asked if he would comment on the roughing the passer call against Courtney Osborne.

 

“No, not specifically. I’m bound by rules not to be able to comment, even if I’d like to, on various penalties.”

No big surprise he answered like this. Cant wait to leave the big 12, i am tired of hearing Beebe's name.

I never thought providing an excuse for Jerrod-Eddie would be an unintended consequence of Ben Cotton taking the high road.

And the crap pile he keeps digging himself into gets bigger and bigger. I would have been more interested in the line of utter crap he would have spewed about the Clown trying to twist Rex's head off. This guy is now my new hero....

 

HE'S DAN BEEBE, AND HE'S A BIG BOY

[Hercules]

Holy crap. I thought that given the officiating today, the conspiracy train would come to a stop. or at least slow down. Then good 'ol Beebe opened his mouth...

But he can suspend a player for something his officials deemed a legal hit. SCREW HIM he is a top notch ASS HAT

[Nhusker23]

What a jackass. Let's put a helmet on Beebe's head, put him in Cotton's shoes for that play and see how he feels about it afterward.

Once again Dan Beebe and the Big 12 is a joke, they have clear evidence of exactly what Jerrod-Eddie did and they won't do anything about it, Michael Slive and SEC reviewed what happened with Brandon Spikes during a game last year of his poking of the eye of a Georgia player I believe it was and he was suspended, but the Big 12 won't do the same.

[redout22]

I am a huge fan of the Big 12 and even after we leave for the Big 10 I will still be cheering for most Big 12 teams. It sucks that the person in charge has to be Beebe

[Lincolnite]

What a douche. Yeah, Ben's going to go on national television and say, "That a-hole tried to grab my ball sack." Once again, Beebe, you come off looking like a complete ass.

[Apathy]

Well mister Beebe what do you have to say about #47 Klein on the Iowa State team who tried to decapitate Rex Burkhead or did you see if differently?

[Apathy]

EDIT: Double post

The funny thing is, I thought Cotton was looking for a laugh with that answer. Beebe just took it out of context to suit his own agenda.

 

Beebe is pathetic. Seriously, he continues to provide reason after reason for us to hate him more and more.

“Well, if you think it was that (jabbing at testicles), we’ll just have to disagree. I don’t think it was in that manner. And didn’t the Nebraska player say he was just trying to get to the ball?”

 

That is the problem, Dan!

Heres Beebes response:

 

Well, first of all, I think if you look at it carefully, it wouldnt be what you characterized, he said.

How would Beebe characterize that play, then?

 

Well, if you think it was that (jabbing at testicles), well just have to disagree. I dont think it was in that manner. And didnt the Nebraska player say he was just trying to get to the ball?

These are obviously my favorite quotes for Bilbo. To me, Danny is saying he knows good anal foreplay when he sees it. The boys in Texas has taught him that. So of course it wasn't testicular assualt, but just good old fashioned Dan Beebe DeLoss Dodd anal foreplay.
