MSU Red Cedar Message Board

I have Final Four ticket. Finally a fair article.

Yep, Feldman does a great job usually. I love his stuff most of the time. The articles you see from outside the 4-Letter network are more than favorable to MSU usually.

Great article. Will is definitely one of my favorite players and i absolutely love how hated he is among UM fans. It only adds to his greatness.

I forgot to mention that i love how we decided not to punish him. It really just felt like a great showing of support for Gholston while at the same time a total middle finger to all the bullshit UM fans/media.

""He can be as good as he wants to be," Narduzzi says. "We don't know. He's still raw, but he is just so strong and so fast. He could be one of the best players in the history of Michigan State.""

What's odd about the "Gholston Punch" is that Lewann had absolutely no reaction to it. He just slogged back to the sideline. I think partly because he knew he deserved it for cheap-shotting Gholston on more than one occasion, and because, quite frankly, Taylor Lewan wants NO part of William Gholston.

He drew the flag. Mission accomplished. No reason to draw one himself.

I had a feeling this would pop up just across the internet a ways, and I was right. There's already an mgoblog thread tearing down this article and why Gholston is in fact, an attempt of murderer. Multiple armbar references are involved.

Not all of them buying the need for it, to their credit.

I can't wait for Will to drag his balls across Denard's face in front of them all.

Couldn't help myself

It's a very good comment. I honestly think that Gholston's punch at Taylor Lewan was the least of his offenses that day. The neck-twist on Denard (a move intended to injure that was barely short of assault and battery) and the original arm-bar on Lewan (also with intent to injure) were far worse.

Don't forget Marcus Rush's personal foul roughing the passer penalty on Denard, which would surely have earned Rush a fine were it committed in the NFL.

Feldman nicely glossed over Gholston's friend mentor coach fixer "guy" Archie Collins, who steered Gholston to MSU and promptly got a Spartan job for his efforts.

Will Gholston; quite possibly the only only extravagantly-talented 5-star whom I am glad went to MSU. A sociopath.

It is a thug program that Dantonio and Narduzzi are running. "Sixty minutes of unneccessary roughness." Feldman missed that charmer of a quote; Jim Delany didn't. I just wish that a videographer from the Saints could get to spend more time with Sparty.

I'm sure he was going a cheap flag all game. Probably expecting to get a shove, but when 2 tall snapped shit got real.

They're still crying over "unnecessary roughness?" What a bunch of losers. The Big Ten has always been about beating the piss out of each other for 60 minutes each Saturday. Boofuckenhoo. I don't care what any politically correct hatchet man says, that was a great quote.

Excellent read. Wow.

I was interested to read that Gholston recognized his mistake, his "letting the team down" IMMEDIATELY after punching Lewan in the UM game. I will never forget that moment afterwards because I did not see the punch but I'm a huge WG fan and usually look for #2 on the field. I was watching the play, heard the whistles, and I saw Gholston jogging to see Coach Narduzzi on the sidelines. For a minute I thought he was injured because of his urgency. He ran up to the coach, helmet unbuckled, and they kind of embraced each other. Gholston was just shaking his head and really upset about something. I heard the ref announcing a personal foul over the speakers and thought "Great, what now?? There have been an assload of flags on this team today" but had no idea he threw that punch. When I got home and watched the highlights is when I saw it and when it all clicked. Now that I'm reading this article about how distraught he was it's all kind of clicking again and I believe it when he says (and they say) how badly he felt about it because I saw the guy respond in those following moments and it was genuine disappointment in himself.
