    Michigan is up first. Ohio State and Notre Dame's kids are coming at later dates.

    I didn't see anything on Yuri Wright's level. These are just kids so not overly surprised.

    I think LSU and Alabama's will be the worst.

    Some of the ones that made me lol...

    It's just 17 year olds being 17 years old. Nothing surprising, imo.

    She's obviously representing the school with some class. That is one classy picture, grabbing her tit as they both fall out of her shirt.

    Trust me, the world needs more hoes and I love the pic but if that's the way you're putting yourself out there you can't call someone else out for not representing with class or whatever.

    I lol'd at the dick holding senses. Also at the unnecessary gayness penalty, because it implies that there is sometimes gayness that just has to be done.

    Some people still don't understand the internet. Everything you tweet will be taken as 100% serious business.
    Our goal with writing this series on social media in athletics is not to get kids in trouble. It is to open the eyes of every adult reading this to take action. Recruiting is a $100 million/year business and every person that has read a tweet from the athletes featured in this series and didn’t take action to address the behavior is telling that athlete that it is ok to tweet about sex, drugs, alcohol, homophobia and gambling with no consequences.
    High school would be a pretty quiet place if those topics were off limits.

    People gotta smart up and stop using their real names. And maybe start using the names of rival players.

    What did we ever do without Twitter and Facebook? I don't remember it being boring when I was in school.

    If anyone thinks that kind of language is "OK" or "normal" for a high school kid, they're kidding themselves.

    As a coach of high school athletes...I will say this.

    Is it "ok"? Absolutely not. Is it "normal"? Absolutely yes.

    I am a high school coach, too. I agree I see it more than I should, but it isn't normal behavior... or at least shouldn't be. What happened to the humble, well-spoken, respectful children?

    I remember back when I was in high school, my friends and I did use bad language amongst ourselves, but never with adults present. I don't use that kind of language on Facebook or Twitter at my age. It's disrespectful, but this is a different time we're livin' in.
