Ohio State LB leaves field, curses out school on Twitter after heated sideline moment

It’s probably safe to say that K’Vaughan Pope won’t be seen in an Ohio State uniform any time soon.

During the second quarter of Ohio State’s game against Akron on Saturday night, the senior linebacker got into what local outlets said was a heated moment on the sideline. Pope apparently thought he was set to return to the field during the second quarter until he was waved off.

At that point, Pope removed his helmet and started walking back to the OSU locker room. An OSU staffer got him to return to the sideline briefly before Pope got into it with his position coach and teammates and did indeed go back to the locker room.
