  • It's a despicable thing to say, but there's nothing illegal about a tweet. He's a POS though..... no doubt.

  • Reminds me of Boosie. State prosecutors tried using his lyrics to give him life in a murder case.

    Nothing illegal, surely. But FSU has every right to boot him the eff out for it.

    Wish they would, not that I'm against the kid, just hope they continue setting precendents encouraging players to realize they are accountable for their actions.

  • Matt Elam is going to be pissed FSU kicked Reid off the team. I could see Elam asking coach to put him on punt coverage so he could lay a lick on Reid next year.

    that police official needs to get his head out of his ass. if i remember correctly it was a rap lyric. im sure everyone said negative things about the cops when they were 18. saying things over twitter isnt illegal. its not smart and its not classy but its also not a legit threat. the coaches have already handled this by banning twitter and im sure having a nice conversation with all the players.

    social media is the worst thing to happen to society since the plague. 18 year olds have no filter and no brains, i dont know why people are shocked when they say and do dumb things anymore

    I'm not shocked at all, but the only way to change the above is to hold them accountable. Rap lyric or no, stupid as shit to put on twitter. Banning twitter isn't enough IMO, he represents your university and is receiving a free ride.

    Btw, don't take this as something against FSU, we've had plenty of players say idiotic stuff on twitter too. Would say the same about them.

    i absolutely agree. hes not gonna get kicked out because thats a bit extreme but he does need to be punished. kids need to learn they represent not just themselves but the school

    Idk, tweeting about killing anyone, cops or not, is pretty outrageous. Most Gators wanted Rainey kicked off after "time to die" and that wasn't even a comment made in public forum..

    So that makes it ok b/c it was a rap lyric? Get your head out of your ass. I don't care if the kid played for the Gators, Cowboys or a high school team. He should be suspended. You don't say sh*t like that. If any of us did that we would be fired by our employers immediately. Someone has to teach kids how to act responsibly. I thought it was a joke when Urban only suspended Dunlap for the SEC title game for his DUI. He should have been suspended for the NC game as well. He fell asleep at the wheel of a car in the middle of an intersection. He just as easily could have laid on the gas and killed someone. Coaches need to hold these kids accountable or they will continue to act entitled and make bad decisions. Just my opinion.

    true but theres got to be a context. if we started kicking kids out for saying that and locking people up for saying things like this, thered be a lot of kids out on their ass and a ton of people in jail. one way or the other the coaches are going to address this again with the players. my feelings are the same on this whether its a UF or an FSU player. at the end of the day theyre still dumb kids who might not have had positive adults in their life to teach them how to act. we arent exactly recruiting rhodes scholars.

    i think the NCAA needs to make all the schools institute something like the NFL rookie symposium. teach these kids things they can and cant do. that type of thing

    I know what you're saying and don't completely disagree, but I don't think these kids are as dumb as we make them out to be. They might not be able to pass Chemistry without assistance, but I don't think they're too dumb to know right from wrong.

    I think they need to be taught that they'll be held accountable for their actions, they already know right from wrong.

    Wouldn't be against the NFL Rookie thing at all, but most schools cover those topics during orientation.

    sometimes i wonder if they really are this dumb. im sure some has to do with a lack of a stable homelife and support system

  • I don't think he should be booted, but he needs a reality check. Maybe ride around with a SWAT unit for a few days and see what they have to put up with on a daily basis. You can't just let it go though.
