SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - Local youth coaches gathered at the Frank Callen Boys and Girls Club to address the Savannah Gators incident that happened December 7 in Florida.
The video has been viewed thousands of times. Gerrel Williams, hitting a youth football player from the Gators twice in the head, screaming at him, and pushing him off the field. It drew criticism from people across the country, even reaching the likes of Savannah State alum and NFL analyst Shannon Sharpe and NBA superstar LeBron James.
