Jim Harbaugh expects the four suspended Michigan State football players involved in roughing up two members of Michigan's team to be punished to the fullest extent of the law. More on the story:
Video showing another angle inside the tunnel shows Michigan State defensive endput his helmet back on his head, turn toward Green and get involved in the altercation.
McBurrows and Green went up the tunnel alongside the Spartans following the game while much of Michigan's team members were waving their rivals off the field and other Wolverines were celebrating near the stadium's student section. "When college football players brutally attack a member of the opposing team with their helmets, resulting in the player suffering a concussion and other injuries, an apology won't suffice," Mars said in a statement provided to ESPN."There has to be severe consequences for this kind of misconduct.
"The initial student-athlete suspensions will remain in place until the investigations are completed," said Tucker, whose head was touched in the tunnel by a fan in the stands Saturday night. The coach responded by swiping the fan's hand away."I'm extremely saddened by this incident and the unacceptable behavior depicted by members of our football program," Stanley said in a statement.
