"I was only walking behind him because he said that he's the director. So I'm trying to figure out what are you gonna do? Like my son should play," she said of her interaction with the athletic director.
Griffin acknowledged that when her son plays, he dominates the field.
"It's just his movement. How he's moving around with the ball. Nobody can't touch the ball," she said.
Griffin said that people were "yelling" at her son to "pass the ball," and when he saw the police, he "was scared as if he did something wrong." She said the experience damaged "his spirit."
"At some point, Nevada's feelings has to ... matter too," Griffin said. "Everybody's worrying about their kids' feelings. Their kid want playing time. Their kid want to kick the ball. My kid do too. He don't know why he's sitting down. Why everybody else is playing?"
Griffin also claimed that she heard other parents tell their children to push her 3-year-old son on the field. Nevada plays in a league with 5-year-olds, according to his mother.
