Pass. Take a look at his twitter feed and you'll see why.

That there is a monster bag with some cash as well.

Yeah, I noticed that, too. It also seems in his feed that there has been a fundamental change recently with the death of a friend in a shooting. I sense a kid who's now really wanting out of his current situation.

Looked up Banneker HS. It's a magnet near Howard U. I would think he's learning something there.
I'm quite glad I'm not judged by what I did, said and thought when I was 16.
Looks like he needs to work on his left hand.

Didn't read his twitter and don't really care what it says. That said, I don't want to be judged by what I said when I was 16....but that was 30 years ago. I do expect to be judged by what I said a month ago.

Yeah I expect a little more out of a 46 year old than I do a 16 year old so I'm not going to be too rough on him.

The problem is when we were 16, what we did wasn't out there for the entire world to see.

that is way too naive, IMO. I hope ISU would be doing their due diligence and screening all students and athletes so that the integrity, quality and safety of the student body is alway first. If there is some concerning stuff on any prospective students social media account (s) I would hope that ISU views it as a red flag and digs deeper to eliminate any concerns before admittance. btw I did not look at his specific account and am talking what should apply to EVERY person that is admitted to ISU. Many companies routinely do this during their recruiting/hiring process and for good reasons.

Ding. Ding. Ding. I'm not talking about any one specific thing he may have tweeted. Thematically through social media, you can learn what type of person you are getting. Odds are, that maturing begins after or in the late stages of college. At that point, how has he spent the first couple of years?
