One of the best plays of the college football season could be illegal next year, and that does not sit well with Eric LeGrand.

The former Rutgers player, who was paralyzed in an October 2010 game, spoke out on Twitter after former refs said a hit similar to Jadeveon Clowney’s vicious one on Michigan’s Vincent Smith could lead to a player being ejected from a game after a rule change for this season.

There's no way #clowneyhit is illegal. Take it from a guy who broke his neck

So judging by all your responses I believe a lot of people agree with me on the @clownejd hit not being illegal. It's a violent game #loveit
