Parks Allen of MI and Ben Myers of OH were both disqualified. Both should apologize to and repay their parents for the cost of traveling to Eugene only to display an inability to control their emotions.
One is from Michigan and the other is from Ohio. Go figure. Looks like someone is still a little butthurt after the thumping UM put on OSU in Columbus in November.
Both are seniors; anyone have any idea where these chuckleheads are going to school in the fall?
I looked it up one is going to Bowling Green and the other is going to Wayne State. If i was their coach i would discipline them as soon as they step on campus.

Nowadays, I'm pretty sure the runners would file a SafeSport complaint against the coaches and get them banned for life and labeled as abusers if they tried any form of discipline.
The guy on the outside kept cutting in on the guy in the first lane, and shoved him off the track a couple of times, but the guy in the first lane kept getting back on the track and trying to protect his position.
The guy on the outside kept shoving him harder, the guy in the first lane shoved him back, perhaps a mistake, because then the guy on the outside knocked him down harder and off of the track.
In retrospect, perhaps the best option for the guy in lane one would have been to give up his position, drop back, lose a few seconds then try to work his way back up through the field.
This was definitely a DQ for the guy on the outside who kept forcing his way into lane one. I see
A DQ for the guy in lane one would be questionable though, as he was simply trying to protect his position, and his race was ruined at that point anyway.

You'd be out of line
Stay in your own lane
Not really, their coaches need to address this behavior so it doesn't happen again because undisciplined athletes with no composure who push and shove and get DQ'd from races don't help their teams win and reflect poorly on their programs.
