I'll answer the legit question.

Arm sleeves are the idea of wearing one or two detached long sleeves or a long sleave shirt under your short sleeve jersey to be trendy. They serve no purpose for protection or play.

The idea used to be only track and field, and has migrated to other sports. It started among the track athletes as a honor bestowed to the captain(s) of the team to wear one arm or leg sleeve, but it now done by anybody in any sport who thinks they want to look cool.

---

Then let him wear the sleeves, but he has to wear a cowboy collar too. That way he can look extra cool.

---

Maybe he also wants to wear the jersey (helmet?) color of his own choosing.

Moose got his feelings hurt, was already headed to the portal after the season, and this is him trolling the entire program as a big F you on the way out. I don't care what his hashtags say. There IS more to this, but once again, social media is being used as a weapon.

And some of you are falling for it.

---

there's probably a lot of truth in that, but there's no way he sits them if we are playing for something meaningful, and that's inconsistent.

Jimbo is running the old-school disciplinarian play out of desperation after having already lost the locker room…but at his peak he was letting ole crabs legs play.

And some of you are falling for that.

Crab legs was just childs play … don't forget the rape and sexual assualt accusation cover up during the "Natty" season of 2013

I'm wondering if this is a branding/NIL issue and not just about sleeves in general.

Wow unbelievable! Knowing both Moose and Jimbo I can see this happening and it’s sad!! Jimbo has different standards for different players which is not right and it causes division on a team.

Bingo. Different rules for different guys

So you believe a trouble maker non essential player is treated just like a mature responsible team captain on any team anywhere?

If Moose can't do what every coach tells him to do, he will not be treated like other players.

Sorry but both are to blame here….

I disagree and blame it on the left arm sleeve.
The right arm sleeve did nothing wrong.

Being suspended for this only shows that Jimbo can't see the forest for the trees. He's so over his head.

Call the CoC and more than half the students racist= OK

Arm sleeves = suspended for game.

He does have some serious double standards.

Dude wears arm bands all year, now the coaches want to make a stink over it. This is on the coaches. Won't be surprised if both Moose and Stewart are gone. But after the sips laid their egg, maybe Stewart won't head there.

Why did he think it was necessary to 'clear the air'? Blows my mind how little awareness people have on the perception of their actions. Even if he was in the right, he now looks like a child running to social media when he feels wronged. Guarantee you, an NFL team will take notice of little outbursts like this - not all care, but many do. Not a good look…oh, and put some turf tape on your elbows like the guys in the league and move on.

We should all wear arm sleeves to the UMASS game

Having raised kids and remembering actually being that age, I guarantee that the whole "that mean old man won't let me do what I want" crap is just a bs excuse. Like some of the others, Moose stepped into F around and find out territory.

---

If Jimbo is such a great disciplinarian, how do you explain rape accusations & theft that essentially went unpunished? Having raised kids, how much credibility as a disciplinarian would you have if you had a history like Jimbo?

If Moose was dropping passes or kickoffs in warmups and Fisher thought the bands were the potential issue, the kid should do as told by his coach. As said by others, apparently armbands become slick in cooler weather.

The kid chooses to stand on the sideline proudly wearing them when his teammates needed him.

. If he would have taken them off he would have played. Foolish mentality on any team but with all the injuries on offense his actions show exactly how selfish he is.

A bunch of woke, participation trophy folks on here. Everybody should be able to do whatever the hell they want, right?

No. This is all on Moose. If a coach asks you to do something before or during a game, you do it if you want to play. Moose should have removed the sleeves, played the game, then addressed his issue with Jimbo's instruction later.

During the game is the wrong time not to follow the head coach's instructions. Instead, Moose chose to get into a pissing match with the HC, and cost the team. Moose put himself above the HC and team… good riddance if he leaves. When Moose is the head coach, he can make decisions about arm sleeves or whatever the hell else he wants to.

If the team or Jimbo had a rule, a player should follow it. If the HC gives a player an instruction, the player should follow it. Period. This isn't hard.

I can see it now… #7 Arm Sleeves the latest addition to the CC Creations NIL Section

Can't underarmor make a tactile sleeve with tack composite for ball security feature?

Sleeves or 3 and outs against Auburn leading to a Big L.

Kurt Warner wore a glove and passed for 400 yards a game

Is there any statistical evidence that players wearing arm sleeves fumble more?

Athletes do not blindly follow coaches anymore, especially coaches they don't believe in. I know it feels nice to blame it on the young generation but don't forget that in 1999 a backup QB turned the team against a legendary coach and Bud Kilmer never coached the West Canaan Coyotes again.

Things change Mox.

I see, so if a player doesn't "believe" in the coach, the player should be able to play by their own rules with no repercussions…. Even if other players "believe" in the coach? And the HC should go ahead and play the player that doesn't believe in the HC or follow his instructions? That should work out perfectly.

Is Moose faster with boxer briefs? Can Jimbo dictate his undies too? Hey Jimbo, there's more important things to worry about than arm sleeves and then making a kid sit because you want unquestionable obedience.

What a stupid stand for Jimbo to take. Did Moose hurt the team by wearing arm sleeves? Or did Jimbo hurt the team by benching his best player for letting something trivial escalate into something worse? I had overzealous coaches that wouldn't let me wear gloves while receiving. Now every player wears them. This is a coach that has lost all confidence and is now overcompensating by trying to come as the "disciplinarian".

---

If they say Nike on them, is your perception the same?

We are the premiere Adidas school in the country. Look it up.

This is college football for heaven's sake. Jimbo would be 100% right for telling him to remove them.

With the inception and subsequent growth of NIL, if this crap is allowed, every player out there would be a walking billboard...not okay!

Why are some of y'all pissed at Jimbo for enforcing the rules?

Y'all being on Texags telling kids to transfer is pure idiocy.

Between the transfers after last season, the necessary suspensions, the injuries, and the youth on this team, what the hell did you folks expect? I guess it's all Jimbo's fault.

I could go on discussing this ridiculousness all night. Grow the hell up.

They're blank white sleeves, my dude...

The only thing he's advertising is pantone 11-0601

I hope there is more to this story because if Jimbo wouldn't play Moose because he prefers to play with arm sleeves than Jimbo is an even bigger idiot than I thought.

I do think this situation is 100% on the player. It just isn't his call to make.

this is on Moose. He could have taken them off. I am sure he copped an attitude and got benched. The fact that he tweeted something says quite a bit.

Oh, and jimbo sucks too.

Would coach be ok with these?

We have hit a new low

Stop digging

Look, it's real simple, if it really is about sleeves.

Moose was stupid to wear sleeves when told not to, stupid to refuse to take them off, and stupid for then going to social media to cry about it.

For his part, Jimbo handled it correctly. But Moose is too stupid to realize Jimbo is protecting him by refusing to answer questions about it.

You know what else he's probably too stupid to run pass routes correctly because he knows what is best.

Look I get it. Kids that age are all prone to think they know it all.

Whether it's dumb or not it was a rule told to skill guys for this game. If the story is accurate, sorry but I'm with Jimbo on this one. You make a rule and one guy tries to say no. You give in then you will get run over by your players forever. You don't see NY yankees refusing to play over the facial hair rule. They want the paycheck. I've never heard of one of them refusing and demanding to get paid still.

In colder weather the ball definitely becomes "harder" and more slick, so I can see why an old-school-minded (read 'old') coach wouldn't want a player wearing sleeves on his forearm. Moose was allowed to wear arm sleeves in previous games because it was warmer in those games. There's no hypocrisy from Jimbo, but rather it's more likely he has a rule that says "if the temperature is below X then no forearm sleeves."

I'm not sure I agree with the philosophy or the rule, but I get it.

Regardless of your position on the rule itself, the bottom line is if Moose willingly violated the rule and just said "no I'm not playing without sleeves" then you have to bench him. Can't allow that to happen.

Maybe Moose knows he plays better when he isn't cold. This sucks all around.

This. At first I thought he didn't have a choice and was benched the whole game. But know knowing he could have taken them off and played, I'm with Jimbo. If I was a player I would want him off the team.
