California bans tackling at football practice....

[I.V.]

I wonder how much of this is being driven by the financials of insurance.

y'all did oklahomas outside of camp now I can understand that being banned during the regular season, I seen a nikka damn near tear his acl he got hit so hard during a Oklahoma, that was the hardest I seen a nikka get hit in a oklahoma, even my coach ended practice because of it

Yep!

We played division 2A in Northeast Louisiana.


They made the 5A Champs (Evangel) and 4A Champs (John Curtis) move down to 2A my senior year because of school size.


We weren't winning shyt.




We was out there having fun.

NCAA is looking at something similar for health and safety reasons. Won't necessarily be legislated, more of a best practices type of thing.

I think there needs to be at least SOME tackling in practice. You have to know how to tackle properly, otherwise you might screw it up during games.

I was a corner, it was important to know how to tackle otherwise the receiver would run through you.

My city just took a major L.


We might have the softest football players now.

Soft ass kids growing up nowadays need to learn how to take a hit

We did full tackle drills in 2 a days. Then during game weeks, we had one full contact/full live day. The rest of the week was just shoulder pads and helmets. We would bang, but not full out tackling. Fridays would be shorts, jerseys and helmets.

Brains are too small prior to that and can get jarred around much easier than at that age

Yeah, but kids are too small and run too slowly to generate enough force to do any real damage.
