FUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKK.

Sucks man. What the F*CK is it with kids in this area not being able to just get some even mediocre grades man? I mean SoFla has one of the WORST F8cking school districts in the country as it is. All u have to do is show up and you can probably skate by with Cs.

Yet another great talent we lose out on because of grades. F*CK F*CK F*CK.

God i wish the newbies could read between the lines. UM didn't just drop him. IF, and i say IF this is true, it's grades or character concerns. UM didn't just stop recruiting him 2 weeks before signing day.
the kid won't say what happened and UM won't ever say what happened. but, read between the lines.

well, none of it really makes sense. you'd think if they had grades and/or character concerns that they would have realized that looooooong before tonight. or two weeks ago. they've been on the kid for over a year.

How do you know this wasn't being considered even at the time of his visit? Maybe they were waiting on some test score of something. We simply don't know.

Guess I should have stuck around for the end of Booker T. Washington's state championship parade.

Offensive lineman Denver Kirkland confirmed Thursday night UM is no longer in the picture for him, just a couple of hours after saying he loved the coaches and the program.

What led to this surprising news? Kirkland said he had a private conversation with UM assistant coach Micheal Barrow and Booker T. head coach Tim "Ice" Harris following the parade in which they discussed an issue that came up with him going to UM.

Was it academics? "Yeah, it was an academic thing," Kirkland said.

Is it that you didn't have the grades or test score to get in? "No, not that," he said.

Is he upset? "No. I'm still going to play college football somewhere," he said.

Kirkland said his final four is now South Florida, Florida State, Ole Miss sand Arkansas.

Kirkland didn't take advanced rocket propulsion and nuclear physics, 2 prerequisites to get into UM. ND has its calculus requirement, but UM is a little tougher.
 
Whatever if it was grades sucks and he can go to Marshall, I just pray to god that this doesn't affect the top prospect in dade county in the last five years
 
What possible academic problem could it be? Plus, it could be that he's not disappointed in our coaches but rather someone else involved

Yup

Sucks

But

"Is it that you didn't have the grades or test score to get in? "No, not that," he said. "

Huh?

ONly two things that can mean. He didnt have some core classes that he needed, OR, there is some academic fraud issue. Maybe some kind of cheating on a test, or a Bobby Washington type issue on the SAT?
