Obviously inappropriate and wrong on many levels, but imagine having so much free time that you follow a nondescript UDFA FB's Twitter all the way back to 2011 to find some racist stuff.

I was thinking the same thing. Who tf has time for all that? Smh and right before a big game like this?

This certainly changes my opinion of him. Cue the "That isn't who I really am" apology. Smh.

Funny thing....

Early in the in the season, I was wondering why we didn't see him on the field more. But at some point between then and now, I TOTALLY forgot he was on the team.

this is the flavor of the day - go back on people's social media and find stuff that they said that is inappropriate. Yahoo lead article is about the heisman winner's old tweets.

clean up your old tweets

It's really that simple... hell I was curious what I was posting back in 2011 haha. More entertaining than anything else. But easy to find and remove!

Just goes to show, you really can no longer escape your past. Especially if you are stupid enough to print it.

Saying the word doesn't automatically confer some sort of racism on the part of Ricard. it clearly was a stupid thing to say but these tweets were dug up from what 2011 when Ricard was 16-17?

Glad we didn't have twitter when I was a kid for grown ass adults to pour over and make judgements decades later.

Don’t post blatantly racist/sexist/offensive, etc shit, and you won’t have to worry about someone taking out a digital shovel and digging it up.

So what Im picking up here is that the racist tone is cool, but the real crime was being stupid enough tweet and then not delete?

That's sort of what I was getting at.

I'd like to be able to say that I didn't say a lot of stupid shit when I was 17. Things I said when I thought I was being cool or funny or outlandish or trying to impress my friends. But I did.

Of course, I'm old, so that was before there were electronic records of my juvenile stupidity.
