Marcus Stokes Loses Florida Scholarship For Singing N-Word OutKick

While filming yourself dropping the n-bomb is always a terrible idea, it should be asked whether or not this is worth ruining a kid s life over. Does revoking his scholarship offer, and thus making him radioactive, really help him learn anything? The answer is almost certainly no.

What happened to grace, mercy and forgiveness? Kids do stupid things. That s why we seal their criminal records when they become adults. As a society, we recognize people without fully developed brains tend to make dumb decisions. It doesn t excuse poor behavior or racist language, but are we now against second chances? It seems foolish to ruin a young man s life over the decisions he made as a kid.

This would never have happened had Stokes been Black. This is ridiculous and disgraceful. Some other school should pick him up at a discount and he can go on to the NFL.
