Schembechler family faces fallout from offensive social media activity.

Glenn Schembechler, son of former Michigan coach Bo Schembechler, apologized for offensive behavior on Twitter that led to his resignation as Michigan's assistant director of football recruiting. Schembechler's tweets included insensitive posts about slavery and Jim Crow. He acknowledged engaging in "flippant behavior" and conceded that any words or philosophies that downplay the suffering caused by slavery and Jim Crow are wrong. Michigan's athletic director and coach issued a statement announcing Schembechler's resignation, citing concern and pain caused by his social media activity.
