Very likely. I love the kid's sentiment, but that was not bright. the Big XII will probably fine Texas Tech and the kid could get suspended for a game.
I can't blame the league if they do something either. Not only will everyone else start pulling stunts like that, but eventually it will bleed over into the Name/Image/Likeness (NIL deals). Some knucklehead will score and pull their jersey up to reveal a gambling company or car dealership logo. I know it sounds petty but it will get out of hand quickly. Some company will pay a kid to do that.
Did you know someone can actually get an Unsportsmanlike Conduct penalty for simply bowing after they made a good play? It is specifically called out in the rulebook.
It was very bright. Imagine they suspended him and the publicity that will generate. It was brilliantly bright and a great way to use a moment in a sport that really doesn't matter a whit.
Should we start a 'Go Fund Me) to bail him out. 😮😂
With NIL he can accept it!
Wow! The play was great and the Trump 2024 was even greater.
Brave kid. Good catch from a high toss.
Watch the college and the NCAA try to punish this kid.

Seriously? It is a game. Games are meant to be fun. Too may BS rules and too little focus on the fact that it is just a game.
This is exactly why I quit following pro and college sports years ago. I will take a high school game over either of those any day of the week.

my youngest goes there - go Tech :)
Coach going to have to answer a thousand stupid questions. I hope the kid is left alone
