Matt Rhule said a Nebraska fan yelled at his 13-year-old ...

People take sports waaaaayyyyyy too seriously. Gambling has brought it to a personal level which doesn't help the matter. Somebody gotta win. Somebody gotta lose and it should never affect one's life. The sun comes up the next morning whether your team wins or loses.
I believe he said it before couple of years ago...maybe wrong and it wouldnt be the first time
I've read that as well but that wouldn't surprise me if that incident were true fans being the way they are. Fan is short for fanatical after all.
did not say it validated his claim only that he made it. I m hard core, show me the evidence that it occured
This behavior is reprehensible. Probably alcohol and bad character mixed together.
But bringing this up paints the picture that Nebraska fans are cruel and caustic. I don't think that's true. For every bozo who would say that to a 13 year old, there are hundreds of Nebraska fans who would have pushed him away and made a liquid diet necessary for a few weeks.
Did Rhule bring this up to stoke sympathy? I'm hard-pressed to find another reason. I know he's not going to quit a $9 million/year job because of a drunk yahoo. So why even mention it?

Agree.
Anyone with a daughter or granddaughter can answer that one without a second thought.
How does one show that other than with witnesses or being within range of a video camera?
Doc Fumble responds with tongue firmly in cheek:
Concrete PROOF is important, saturdaysarebetter!!!
This could be a desperate ploy to generate some sympathy, you know. Matt Rhule wants us to believe he's a good-hearted family man. We all know now that he's a piss-poor coach but while we're all angry, let's paint the SOB as an unethical, lowlife liar too!
