ISU's Kramer looked at by police for pushing student athlete

[Beardown]

During practice Mike Kramer pushed a player to the ground and now the player says he is having back spasms. Claims he is having back spasms because of this. You can read see him pushing the player on the link and read the ESPN story below. We've got our problems but not nearly as bad as the Bungles.

This guy plays a sport where the object is to tackle and block other players to the ground and this necessitates bringing in 2 police agencies to investigate?

How does that get video taped!! Amazing timing. Talk about bad karma

Go to the isu Board on bigskyfans
It is am using
The main difference between the posts that I have read (earlier this morning) was the support for the Head Coach that I read into what was being said.
Interesting how one poster stated that he didn't have much respect for their HC as a person.

It's stupid by both individuals. Kramer should know better but the athlete should grow a pair. I wonder if he will be suspended for a bit while they look into this. This might mean he won't be making the trip to Greeley.

It was at practice, practice is always video taped.

I think every coach from little league to college and beyond knows that in this day and age you do not put your hands on a kid. This will and should get Kramer fired from his 3rd Big Sky school. Just plain stupid.

You're right vettman.
I attempted to get the video link up and had an epic fail.
Those off you who saw the video.....was it a push out of frustration? Anger? Control?
Sending a message?
I am more than aware that nobody will ever, or could ever answer this questions factually, but I would like to get your impressions.
I wonder if he actually looked like he just cracked?
Sometimes coaches believe they are showing intensity and passion and it turns out terribly
Wrong
Kramer must just be a flat out stud to drop Division l athlete, or a coach just lost control.
OR there's more to the story.
Any way you cut it, those things need to be handled.jm in house......if the AD actually had any balls. The kid retaining a liar, I mean lawyer........come on man.

I agree completely. Most coaches know better than to do something this stupid. He should be gone sooner than later.
