The University of Florida has rescinded a football scholarship offer to a high school prospect for using the n-word while rapping along with a song.

Standout quarterback Marcus Stokes, of Nease High School in Ponte Vedra Beach, posted a video of himself mimicking the lyric as he rode in a car.

“Welcome back, n—-,” he can be heard saying in the since-deleted two-second clip.

“I was in my car listening to rap music, rapping along to the words and posted video of it to social media,” Stokes wrote in a statement Sunday. “I deeply apologize for the words in the song which I chose to say.”

Stokes, who played at the same high school as University of Florida legend Tim Tebow, confirmed that his offer had been revoked after the incident.

A white kid. If he was black he’d still have his scholarship
