Its Texas ! the ref should lie quietly on the ground and submit meekly
That was insane. Wow.
Geez.

thats crazy. I hope that particular student athlete never has the privilege of suiting up for his high school ever again.
Sometimes you have to make a stand and draw a line in the sand. attacking officials is one of those lines.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
According to The Monitor, Duron was also suspended during the 2019-20 soccer season because of a similar incident during a match.
If I were that boy's daddy, I think it would be just about time to teach the little punk a lesson in manners.
"Come over here soccer boy, papa is going to teach you some respect for elders"....
Star athlete in track, wrestling. All state etc. Apparently they don’t test for roids in high school. He should never play organization sports again.

That kid is ANGRY. Usually I don’t think kids need much attention for fighting or whatever since it’s kids being kids but this type of thing is an exception, total lack of respect for authority and adults. That’s a major problem
"Daddy?". ......I seriously doubt there is one.
Very good point
Call me old but this is the direct results of participation trophies, never experiencing losing and never being told no and probably never having your a$$ beat.

Have this kid spend a month living under the care and supervision of ten of the biggest, baddest, demanding and toughest Marine drill Sargents.
Have him go through boot camp training in order to give him some real life experience and show him that there are consequences to one's actions and there are minimum standards of conduct that must be adhered to.
Roid rage

Should be arrested

Here in Texas I heard a snippet of a sports radio conversation about this today, and they mentioned he had done something somewhat similar .......maybe last year? during soccer?
Local news just said he's being charged, didn't catch all the specifics.
According to The Monitor, Duron was charged with Class A assault on Friday morning following an arraignment at the Edinburg Municipal Court. A cash surety bound in the amount of $10,000 has been set for Duron.
In addition, the Edinburg CISD announced Friday that Edinburg is no longer eligible for postseason play as a result of the incident.

True story.
kid is on a fast track to the penitentiary
and the school district actually did that team a favor by removing them from the playoffs. @thisistheshow can attest to this -- schools from the valley have a less-than-zero chance of winning a state title here in Texas. once that team went far enough to be pitted against a school from either the San Antonio or Austin areas, they'd be taken behind a woodshed and beaten to a bloody pulp
huge disparity in talent

I remember when it was always Converse Judson, Plano and Odessa Permian were the power houses. Haven’t followed it for years. Marshall, Texas won it in 1990 and the star RB was Odell Beckham, father of OBJ. Only reason I remember is because I arrived in Texas in 87 and was blown away by the furor of HS football here.

This thread makes me miss my days of going to Friday night high school football games. The concession stands, the sound of the band playing, the smell of grass from the field, the school janitor taking a leak behind the bushes, man I miss those days.
Texas HS football is on a whole other level.
Friday night lights.
It's definitely intense.
had no idea you lived (live?) here. but anyone armed with that info either does or has lol
would highly recommend Friday Night Lights for anyone who would like a great football read. one of my college roommates played on that Permian team and had some unforgettable stories to tell. i grew up in Abilene and we have been in Odessa Permian's district for the better part of my life (occasionally the boundaries change and we go east and play greater Fort Worth schools.) anywho, our football team was so pathetic my senior year ('86) that Permian rolled into town and bludgeoned us to the tune of 63-7. but here's the kicker: we didn't make a first down the entire game. our touch was a scoop and score by the defense.
but we got the last laugh with ol' Odessa, as my alma mater went on a formidable 15-year stretch, culminating in a state title at the highest level back in 2009. that year we ended up ranked #2 in the nation behind Don Bosco of New Jersey.
but as i type this today, there is next to no chance of my high school ever replicating that feat as long as we reside in class 6A. it will require a drop in classification. how can a smaller city compete with a burgeoning suburb of Dallas like Allen (where Kyler Murray played) that has an enrollment almost 3 times larger?
cities like Dallas, Houston and Austin and their burbs are becoming so densely populated that any school outside of those areas that does happen to win will definitely be an anomaly. teams like Allen, Southlake Carroll, DeSoto, Austin Westlake, Lake Travis, Galena Park North Shore, and Katy go deep every......single......year

Still live in Texas. High School football where I was from was ho hum couple hundred fans in a wooden bleachers 40 years old track field, tire repair and hair salon. I came to Marshall and drove by a 20,000 seat stadium and asked what college plays there? Oh that’s our high school stadium. The town literally rolled up the streets when they were making their run for 5A state. Boy what a culture shock. Rivalries? Longview vs Marshall. They literally talked about the game all year. Wow

I had no idea that you were also here in Texas.
a simple solution for a complicated problem: barred from any Texas HS sports forever, Civil and Criminal Courts run him through the system for whatever charges there are and then they get that young man into somewhere to try to save him.
Makes sense to me.
In my opinion, easier said than done unfortunately and fraught with hiccups.
Just amazing that he had done almost the same thing during the soccer season and was still allowed to participate in another team sport. Somehow, I don't think that would be tolerated here, although star athletes get preferential treatment.
Marshall for the first 6 years. Longview for one and 25 here in Texarkana.

I'm about 200 miles southwest of you, right under Fort Worth.
I remember my Al Bundy playing days. Going to an away game in a school bus and mooned the cars behind us. One of those cars had our game referees.
When I visited the DFW area in 2012, my friend and I wanted to go see the high school with the $60m stadium that had just been built*. Didn't have time but we saw one on our way to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The town was like 20 or 22,000 people total. Their stadium seated 30,000. And they were building a new one! That building was awesome, easily on par with Eastern Washington University not far from my home here in Spokane. We met a security guard sitting in a booth at the parking lot to the school (poor guy - in a metal booth in late August in Ft Worth!) We asked if we could look around and the guy apologized - because he couldn't show us everything he wanted. Dude walked us around all over except on the field and was awesome.
https://www.cbssports.com/general/news/georgia-youth-football-coach-banned-for-life-after-assaulting-player-lebron-james-speaks-out-on-incident/amp/. This is more than pathetic, it’s outright ridiculous. If I was this kids father that Coach would be looking for his teeth. Unbelievable
that dude was a counselor with the sheriff's office
and read his apology -- he states that he should not have disciplined him in public and should've waited "[until] he got back".............implying that he would've blasted that kid in the head multiple times when no one was watching
you can't make this stuff up

Just gross
I've run a youth lacrosse club in my area for about eight years. While I can say I've never seen anything quite as drastic as that, I will go to my grave with the belief that adults are the worst part of youth sports. I see stuff that blows my mind on a pretty regular basis.
My best friend is the athletic director of a fairly large high school in Massachusetts and your 100% correct that the parents are the biggest issue, he has had to get parents restrained before going after reff’s, other parents, students. It’s absolutely ridiculous some the stuff he has to deal with, some of the worst Steve girls sports believe it or not. Police involvement at games is pretty consistent
