Mark Fletcher Incident

Advertisement
The minute I got the alert I knew it wasn’t unprompted or unwarranted. I obviously don’t know Fletcher. But everyone just effuses praise about the kid. You want me to believe the kid who left his locker room to congratulate the guy who beat him just without cause hit a dude? I’m not believing that **** for a second.

Can someone that covers the team please provide Mark’s side of the story here, @DMoney?

I’m sick of watching the national media run his name though the dirt and call him a scumbag for reacting the same way any player would in similar circumstances.



The Indiana reporters are writing puff pieces about how Tucker was just trying to say, “good game” to Fletcher after the game, and that he was swung at “for no reason.”

This is bull****. The university needs to get out in front of this. His family doesn’t deserve all the vitriol being spewed out on social media.

You can simultaneously hold Mark accountable for his actions, while also highlighting Tucker’s absolutely disgusting comments. Currently, only one narrative is circulating online. And that needs to end.

Mark shouldn’t be held accountable for ****. He should’ve walked away like he was fine and gone back and jumped that piece of trash and beat him as much as he can until removed.

We all would have done the same thing as him.

The problem is, you still can’t react that way.

No one blames him, but I would understand if they said Mark should have walked away, but that doesn’t excuse what the other guy said.

It’s dumb. But in this day and age, you kinda have to take that route. It ****es me off, though.

I just wouldn’t have given what was said. I would’ve taken my helmet to him. If not to his head to his knee. I’d try to cripple him if he said what that piece of trash said to Fletcher. I would’ve tried to end his ability to walk on a field again and I don’t care who doesn’t like it.

Same here, brotha. And it would have been worth the consequences.

No argument from me. It was worth it. But that doesn’t mean you can expect some sort of consequence.

Oh of course. Accountability. I don’t know Fletcher personally but he seems a very mature accountable kid. I’m sure he thought about it before he did it and is willing to take the consequences

Just a **** situation really
