That's certainly not what cheerleaders sign up for.

Shelton Gibson scored a 41 yard touchdown against Maryland on Saturday which will have done no harm to his reputation as an up-and-coming wide receiver. The same can't be said for Gibson's reputation as a gentleman, though, as he absolutely destroyed a cheerleader who was busy reorganising her pom-poms past the endzone. The poor girl got absolutely flattened by all 190 lbs of Gibson who continued to celebrate a little bit after colliding with the cheerleader. We hope she's alright.
