It was unprovoked. The kid was no threat to him, and he didn't just run into the kid. Sure, he shouldn't have been on the field but that is a matter for a security guard not a player. Maybe it's a slight mitigating factor in some way but that still looked like assault to me.

I know you have some security background SU and you probably know the laws about this better than I do but that was a morally reprehensible act.

Here's the video.  Judge for yourself.

The first angle makes it look pretty bad. Mick's angle makes it look like the U$C kid is running off the field and the Wazzu kid runs in front of him and gets pushed to the ground. Concussion? From that hit? One can only hope all WSU kids are that tough tomorrow. Pathetic wimp looking for a settlement.

Can't believe I'm defending a Literature's most famous losers. Yeesh.

I agree, Trojan pushed the kid using his arms.  Kid ran right in front of him while Trojan was jogging off of the field.  Kid shouldn't have been on the field.  Being on the field, he should be looking where he is going.  Trojan is understandably in a bad mood and just trying to get to the locker room.  Football player, on the football field where he is supposed to be amped and agro, just lost, pissed off.  WSU student fortunate to get gentle wake up call.
