Amadu was a man amongst boys when he was pre-teen. Reminded me of Freddy Adu situation. Hasn't grown much since but still a good player.
I am pretty sure I remember him wearing a gps tracking ankle bracelet to a game I played him in when he was young playing for North Shore United. Some assault case he was involved in.

Different poster here, but.....sort of. If he is truly intelligent and does well at Harvard then good for him. As for the jealous part....I am jealous of those that fit some diversity generated niche that gets extra consideration beyond what they have earned. I am jealous of those that don't have to pay anything for college.
For the initial part, I would like to get rid of forced diversity give to those who earn it other than determine that gift based on color, religion, or what country you fled.
As for the latter part, the cost of education is way out of control without any break or relief coming anytime soon. Make education free for all citizens. Afterall, we pay huge amounts of money into the system, we might as well benefit from it.

Anyway.... Domestic geographical diversity goals are okay? Legacy points--which make up most "preferential" treatment? How about, ironically enough, "tips" for athletes?

I do hope it works out for him and will be sad if it doesn't - not only for him (no one wants to see a kid fail, ever) but also because that spot could have gone to someone else who did meet Harvard's tough academic standards and was just as good a player.

Wasn't this discussed a few months ago? Let it be. He's an adult now and has no excuses other than himself if he succeeds or fails.

Please ignore this idiot. He/she has already corrupted the "Bolts" thread with this diversity bull****. Would you PLEASE just go find a corner and shut it!!!!!! Why do you not just say that you hate minorities and be done with it. You keep talking around the elephant and I am sure you do not have the nuts to have this conversation in the presence of the people you seem to so despise.

Wow. All those exclamations and '*' must make your statement more authoritative and important. I am a minority, and I don't like seeing minorities get ahead based on color or religion. It diminishes the credibility of the foundation and the individual. As for talking around the elephant, I don't see your name listed here.

You got all over the kid going to Harvard and the only thing you know about him is that he is black. How did you know he got entitlements? I have nothing more to add because you are not worth anyone's time.
