Moore's Actions at the end of the game...

[tidehawk]

Malachi Moore has been a great player for Bama during his career, and up until now a good leader. However, his actions at the end of the game were inexcusable. His little tantrums showed an utter lack of class and were a poor representation of himself and the University. He should have been pulled off the field immediately. I don't make it a habit of poor-mouthing a player, especially for his play. However, he needs to be called out for his behavior. Moore, you wear a C on your chest because you are a captain - act like it!

Agree 100%. Zero class shown by MM and a supposed leader. IMO, he should be suspended at minimum 1 game. No excuse.

I hope his mother got on his but.
I am extremely disappointed in him today.
We (the fans and players) are owed an apology for his actions .

 

[Slowpoke Catracho]

Who's going to fill his shoes on an already anemic defense? I think he should get some sort of practice in-house punishment, but we can't afford to have him miss a game. We can't afford another loss or there will be no playoffs and the fans will go crazy and the message boards will break the servers!

He was told to come off the field and refused. There used to be a day he'd be running until the coach puked. But we do gentle parenting now a days so that ain't happening. But it wasnt just the end of the game for him he was acting a donkey the majority of the game. If his mama is as tough as some on here say, she ought to tear his butt up. I'd yank a knot in mine so hard his soul would be present with Jesus.

Yes. I cannot recall an Alabama player being directed to do something like that and just refusing. I felt sorry for the kid they sent out to replace him. Team captain? He is the one who should be stopping younger players from bratty, petulant, immature behavior.

 

[CB72]

Just now saw the clip of the shenanigans walking off the field.

EMBARRASSING.

 

[M2J]

I certainly feel his"C" status should be removed. Period. Get your @** off the field when coaches tell you to

Won’t happen

 

[CB72]

He would be suspended.

 

[TDBama78]

MM's conduct Saturday does not need to be tolerated,made excuses for,or anything else, that nonsense on the field has to stop and a severe punishment delt and a clear message sent to the rest, and let the chips fall where they may.

I'm glad he got angry but that was not the right way to deal with it. I'd favor a half-game suspension except that we really need him on the field. We need all the defensive help we can get. Maybe make him eat beanie wienies next post win team meal?

But you simply can't reward or ignore that behavior. Regardless of the impact on the field, if the coaches feel like sitting him is the appropriate discipline then that's what needs to be done. If it cost us on the field then use it as a coaching moment and say "This is what happens when you are a selfish player. You hurt your team."

The players have been running the team since at least last year. Coaches won't do a thing.

 

[smokies1]

He should have been acting like that after the first drive, not when the game is over

Which is why I think Saban hung it up. He couldn't control the players any longer just like he couldn't in the NFL. Now that the college players are getting paid they're just like the NFL players. They're not going to put up with much discipline.

That's the whole issue.

Run to the portal, i.e., run from the problem.

So Joe Willie should have played in the bowl game...?

 

[Windsortide]

Discipline appears to be an issue with the team! See the penalties as well.

It's a lot different now. It's playoffs or bust.
