TMZ is reported UCLA football coach Sal Alosi was
demoralizing and verbally abusing Justin Combs, the son of music
and fashion mogul, Sean
"Diddy" Combs, for being rich and connected. This led to Diddy
physically attacking Alosi. TMZ states Alosi was so resentful of
Justin being rich, he posted a photo in the locker
room of the rap mogul and his son courtside at an NBA basketball
game and stated, "While you guys are training, this guy is
sitting courtside with his dad."
Sal Alosi
Alosi's bullying was completely uncalled for. Furthermore, how is
attending a basketball game partying. Granted, Diddy handled matters the
wrong way by resorting to violence, Alosi provoked it via
bullying the rapper's child in his presence. Alosi has a problem
with sportsmanship and fair play, having tripped a Miami
Dolphins football player during an NFL game, in misconduct he was
forced to publicly apologize for on television.
Rapper and mogul, Sean "Diddy" Combs was arrested
on Monday
for aggravated assault on UCLA fitness and conditioning coach, Sal
Alosi. Combs became enraged as Alosi berated and humiliated his
son, Justin Combs, during practice. Alosi, who is know for
tripping a Miami Dolphins football player during an NFL game and
having to formally apologize at a press conference, caught the
brunt of Combs' anger for verbally abusing his son.
Sean Combs
Combs is accused of physically attacking Alosi twice and
swinging a kettlebell (weight) at an intern, who aided in
breaking up the fight. Campus security were called and after
reviewing surveillance tapes Combs was arrested. The rapper is
now up on four charges in relation to the incident. Combs has
been charged with three counts of assault with a deadly weapon
and one count of making terrorist threats. This was not the way
to handle this problem. A formal letter should have been
submitted to the school regarding Alosi's verbally abusive
conduct, as such speech does prove harmful to athletes'
performance and psyche.

Former UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel stated on Sirius XM
satellite radio that the only reason Justin Combs was offered a
scholarship to UCLA is because of his dad's fame, as he is too
small to play defense. Neuheisel stated, "When you’re weighing
the assets of what a youngster can do for your program, there’s
no question he had something to do with it for me. Justin is a
great kid. His problem was his size. He’s not big enough to be a
dominant player. Could he be productive? Yes. The fact his
father was an influential guy played into my decision to go
ahead and offer him."
