He tweeted something absurd at Darnay Holmes earlier this year. Its a shame people can't find anything better to do with their lives than this

"Two, who &$* cares about Boston College recruiting?" Line of the article.

This is the same guy that Twitter-argued with me over the full course of a day that the 2011 UConn-Butler game was "half full" and had a crowd "smaller than high school football games" despite my repeated screenshots from the CBS feed on Youtube obviously disproving him.

I think I remember you mentioning that back when he was talking up Houston and Cincy. Unreal.

Well, now you know what a troll you were dealing with.

Remarkably, he bears a striking resemblance to the jalapeno bacon mac & cheese kid.

It used to be you had to pick the right time to have "the talk" with your kids.

What is too soon to have a talk about social media (assuming you're not raising closet racists, in which case, you need to send them to classes to learn how to do it).

Watch an episode or two of "The internet ruined my life." The web is a scary place, even fairly benign social media sites.

That said, this kid is a world class . Tough to give a crap about him.

Imagine describing this plan to someone - "I don't want these football recruits to go to Texas, so I'm going to create a few fake twitter accounts, then I'm going them to tweet pro-UT, racist things at them..."

Even if the guy wrote it out, waited a day and then re-read it, he'd (hopefully) realize what a staggeringly dumb idea this was. Instead, he went ahead and did it, did basically nothing to cover his tracks and got caught. Now he has to deal with the consequences.

Even in arguing with him over Twitter something seemed legitimately off, he was denying things that were being visually and irrefutably proven to him. Wouldn't be totally surprised if the guy behind the account(s) is a complete fraud all around and whoever is in the picture isn't actually Daniel Figurelli, a la Manti's girlfriend.

You're absolutely right, people have had their lives ruined over really inconsequential things. Look at the Ole Miss kid the other night - loses millions of dollars in contract money he had worked to achieve because of a stupid weed video. Sure, he shouldn't have taken the video but if that's the worst thing he's ever done in his life, he ain't that bad. Doesn't deserve to lose millions of dollars over it.

But you're also right, this kid brought this entirely upon himself, no sympathy.

From the linked thread:

tejasrulz, on 25 Apr 2016 - 9:12 PM, said:


Back to Danny boy, on Shaggy they're stating that his PWC job offer letter has been revoked.


Also some saying that any hope of working for the Big 4 in HTown is done.
CL82: Wow, it's actually tough to see someone blow up their lives like this. I'd feel bad for the guy, if he wasn't so vile.

Good things happen to good people. Bad things happen to bad people. The way this guy has conducted himself in the past few years, he's deserved the rainstorm of he's gotten. He's young (at least the guy in the photos looks young) so hopefully this will be his bottom and he can put his life back together. He probably should take a LONG break from social media altogether - real and fake profiles.
