After watching another season of targeting adventures in college football I have decided that college football needs to look at changing the targeting rule.

My proposal comes from college basketball with their 2 levels of flagrant fouls.

A targeting 1 would be a player attempting to make a football play and hitting a player with the crown of the helmet without intent to injure the opposing player. An example would be the hit by OSU last night against Clemson. No intent and attempting to make a football play. A targeting 1 would qualify as an unsportsmanlike conduct towards the 2 penalty disqualification rule.

A targeting 2 would be a situation where the player intentionally leads with the crown or attempts to injure an opponent. Also included would be a targeting foul in the commission of another personal foul or in a non football action. An example would be the Oklahoma player last night vs LSU.

I would also change the rule about having to go to the lockeroom upon a targeting ejection.
