My man was PISSED!
Princely Umanmielen, a defensive end who played football at the University of Florida for three seasons prior to transferring to Ole Miss, made his exit from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium with a police escort Saturday after the Rebels suffered a defeat against the Gators. Needless to say, it wasn’t a good day for Umanmielen in his return to “The Swamp.”
So much so, that he had to be restrained from fighting Florida fans. (RELATED: Deion Sanders Lands Julian Lewis To Replace Shedeur Sanders. Time To Start Counting Down Until Colorado Wins A Natty)
In the final seconds of the 24-17 loss against the Gators, Umanmielen decided to leave the sidelines but, while heading to the locker room, a fan yelled something at him while in the stands. Obviously, it ticked Umanmielen off, as he made his way to the seats to confront the fan.
That’s when police officers got involved, immediately stepping in to provide Umanmielen an escort to the locker room. Afterwards, they escorted him to a team bus, but there happened to be more Florida fans shouting in his direction. That’s when Umanmielen quickly turned around and tried to brawl it out with Gators supporters, instantly being stopped by police and coaches.
