[Whatever]

This situation however, involves a little nuance, as every player during that game received an “unsportsmanlike conduct” following a brawl that saw the benches from both teams hit the field. During the fight, Gay was relatively reserved and did not instigate or continue the fight. But since he had already received a similar penalty, he and several other players were ejected from the game.
The Egg Bowl is a tradition in Mississippi, where the two biggest schools in the state play against each other. The stakes in this game are more than just bragging rights and pride. These two schools recruit heavily from the same areas and a recent win in the Egg Bowl can be what it takes to convince a high school recruit. "




This is what happens when people read a snippet but don't actually know or understand what happened.  AGAIN he doesn't have the issues on the field that make him like Burfict in any way.  He's never been considered a dirty player or someone who intentionally tries to hurt people.  Let's not forget that the thing everyone remembers about Burfict in the Steeler's game is the helmet to helmet hits and his inability to learn to tackle differently.

Uh, except it doesn't refer to the Egg Bowl.  You realize the Egg Bowl wasn't the only game he got tossed out of last year, right?  He got tossed out of his first game back against Kentucky for getting into it with an opposing player.

"Gay's second personal foul came after senior defensive end Chauncey Rivers came up with a sack on third down as Kentucky was threatening to score just before halftime. Gay, energetic as ever, celebrated the play a little too much, much to the chagrin of a Wildcat who engaged Gay in the minor altercation that ultimately was his last act on the field. 

"The ironic part of it is right before we left the sideline on the defensive huddle I told him that we needed to keep our composure and not respond back to any chippiness or anything like that," Moorhead said."


Dude literally went right out there and got himself ejected after his coach reminded him to keep his composure.  And this was his first game back after serving his supspension.  Dude has zero composure.
