“What I Just Witnessed!?”: LeBron James Stands By Coach Prime Once Again, Calls out “Blatant” Dirty Foul By Colorado State’s DB

LeBron James stands as a colossal figure in the world of basketball. Inducted in 2003, he brought an abundance of hype and the spotlight trailing closely behind. To signify his impact, it took two decades for another player, Victor Wembanyama, to generate similar excitement and enthusiasm. However, the trajectory of basketball’s fate could have easily been different had LeBron James chosen a career in football. Before fully committing to basketball, James was deeply rooted in the world of football.

During his sophomore season on the varsity football team, James showcased his remarkable skills. He amassed an impressive stat line of 42 receptions for 752 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns. He even leveled up his game to greater heights in his junior year. However, LeBron recognized his size and athleticism could offer him more success in basketball. Despite his chosen path, James has remained intimately connected to the world of football. Moreover, he consistently shares his excitement and insights as a fan and devoted student of the game.

LeBron James shares a heartfelt response to a Colorado game

A recent game between the Colorado Buffaloes and the Colorado State Rams got off to a controversial start. Early in the quarter, the Rams were leading 14-7. As the play unfolded, Henry Blackburn delivered a late hit to Colorado’s star wide receiver, Travis Hunter. The impact came right after a pass from Shedeur Sanders had sailed over Hunter’s head. 

Amidst the intensity of the game, LeBron James couldn’t help but voice his dissatisfaction with the situation. “Like I don’t understand the difference between targeting and what I just witnessed. I’ve seen others get thrown out for far less. That was blatant and uncalled for IMO!,” he wrote on X (Twitter).

Hunter was shaken up by the hit and had to be taken to the sideline. The play didn’t end there, as the instance saw pushing and shoving among the players. The officials called pass interference on the play and, on top of that, flagged Blackburn for unnecessary roughness.
