Sean Combs was arrested after taking a swing at the UCLA Strength and Conditioning coach with a kettlebell weight. Seems that the coaching staff isn't properly utilizing his son's skills, nor are they paying proper attention to Diddy's suggestions.

Apparently he's the biggest helicopter dad since Craig James.

Still think UAB should have recruited him?

Yes

Yes, just imagine what he would have done to Ray Watts if his son was on the team when the announcement was made.

Yes

From what I heard, the assistant coach has a history too. Doesn't mean he should have been attacked though.

If a player signed at USC and had shown interest in us, then yeah I'm down with him
coming here. The kid hasn't had any issues, you can't not recruit someone because they have idiot parents.

And only the Lord knows how many recruits with such parents are out there?

Yes

Bad boy stadium sounds nice

We could have had Diddy fight Anthony Alford's mom at halftime of the Southern Miss game. It would have been epic.

The assistant coach in question is the same assistant coach who was accused of tripping players in the game on the sidelines as an assistant coach of the NY jets

Having been in an altercation with a player's parent at a football game before, I would vote no to Little Diddy Daddy Puffy whatever the hell is stupid name is now's son playing for us...

And before you pile on me, the altercation occurred because I voiced my...shall we say displeasure...with Watson Brown after watching SMU go the length of the field in 30 seconds.

BTW- does anyone else find it ironic that Snoop Dogg and Puff Daddy's sons are on the same team at UCLA considering Snoop and Diddy were on opposite sides of the whole east coast-west coast hip hop rivalry back in the '90s?

I got screamed at by Watson's daughter for the following comment to the guy who sat in front of me for years "can you believe that guy still has a job?". I was about to start spewing out facts about how pathetic her fathers coaching record was topped off by repeating her fathers snide comments about her still living at home as an adult when it occurred to me that my 4 year old son was sitting next to me so I kept my mouth shut
