Social Networking Rumor Backfires on Holland

Oregon’s wide receiver Jamere Hol­land was dis­missed from the team on Sun­day by coach Chip Kelly. Hol­land had vio­lated team rules said Kelly and it is thought that was due to a post he made on Face­book, although Kelly would not com­ment on this.

It was after line­backer, and top team per­former, Kris­t­ian Kiko Alonso was arrested on Sat­ur­day for sus­pi­cion of DUI that Hol­land made an update on his Face­book sta­tus. He wrote that Alsonso had been thrown off the team and went on to say what a trav­esty this was for the Ducks. Later, and shock­ingly, Hol­land went on to write in a later post: “I wish I could block whites as friends and only have blacks LOL, cause appar­ently I’m misunderstood.”

Alonso is the fourth Ore­gon team mem­ber to be arrested on sus­pi­cion of DUI, but school spokesman Dave Willi­ford quashed Holland’s rumor of Alsono being released. So Holland’s post back­fired on him. Accord­ing to ath­letic direc­tor Mike Bel­lotti he had been given many chances and pep talks, since his trans­fer to the Ducks from Cal­i­for­nia in 2006.
