Teen Expelled From Prep School, Loses Football Scholarship To Michigan Because Of Tweets

Twitter Scholarship
It should be harder to sign up for a Twitter account, because chances are you’ll be caught for saying all those racist and sexually graphic things you’re thinking if you’re a sexually graphic-thinking racist.
And it doesn’t matter if you’re one of the best high school football players in the country, because you’ll pretty much lose your future over it.
Why don’t people think anymore? Why are kids these days (it feels weird saying that, but it’s true!) without any kind of manners or proper up-bringing??
Yuri Wright was super close to being a Michigan Wolverine. Then, Wright decided to act like a sex-addicted racist on Twitter, and now has been expelled from Don Bosco Prep School. Michigan agreed with the decision, and pulled their offer. Wright was followed by 1,500 people on the networking site, but apparently his Twitter has been pulled offline.
Here’s what’s being said:

“To my knowledge this is the highest profile prospect to be dropped by a college program and expelled from school over Twitter.This has ruined Yuri’s chance to attend the school he has labeled as his dream school in Michigan, and it could cause other schools to back off as well. Hopefully. this example will send a wake-up call to high-profile prospects moving forward to watch what they put out in cyberspace.”

Wow, for being a generation who knows better than anyone else how to use technology and the internet, it’s seeming more and more that they just don’t understand how the internet works at all.
There’s no word if any of the other schools that made him offers are okay with this or not. We’ll find out soon, we’re sure.
We say teach him a lesson about his actions!
