Florida WR Demarcus Robinson retweets then deletes tweet about UF QB situation

Florida WR Demarcus Robinson retweets then deletes tweet about UF QB situation

For Demarcus Robinson's sake, let's hope this was an accidental retweet.

Per SB Nation's Alligator Army, Robinson, a Florida WR, retweeted a tweet asking Twitter users if they wanted to see a new QB at Florida. QB Jeff Driskel was 9-28 passing for 93 yards a touchdown and two interceptions on Saturday in a 42-21 loss to Alabama.

The retweet is no longer on his account. Robinson must have quickly recognized his social media mistake because this tweet is on his page from after the time when the retweet would have happened.

Robinson is Florida's leading receiver. He has 23 catches for 353 yards and three TDs. His reception total is almost double the total of Clay Burton, Florida's second-leading receiver (12).

We're not going to come out and accuse Robinson of any malice, though we're not ruling anything out either. We've all accidentally retweeted or favorited something via Twitter, especially on our phones. Heck, on Saturday, the Kansas football account had an oops moment, briefly favoriting a tweet about a chant to fire coach Charlie Weis. (The tweet was subsequently unfavorited.)

Be careful with your thumbs and, as always, think before you tweet.
