Darius McCormick volunteers his time as an assistant football coach at Granger High School in Utah, but right now he might be looking for another way to give to the community.After a recent 34-6 loss, McCormick tried to get two players to get on the team bus, saying, “Come on, boys, let’s go.”
Whereupon the father of the boys, Tamua Siaumau, told the coach to leave his sons alone, then allegedly grabbed one of their helmets and hit McCormick in the face.
McCormick was taken to the hospital in critical condition; Siaumau was taken to jail. He faces a charge of aggravated assault.
The coach since has been released but faces months of recovery following reconstructive surgery.
