OSU football: Chuba Hubbard deactivates Twitter account after tweets about Oklahoma County DA

After using social media to affect change in the Oklahoma State football program, running back Chuba Hubbard has deactivated his Twitter account.

Hubbard posted three tweets on Monday afternoon criticizing and calling for the resignation of Oklahoma County district attorney David Prater.

Protesters marched outside Prater's office on Monday, upset with Prater both for filing terrorism charges against some demonstrators and for clearing the Edmond police officers involved in the fatal shooting of a naked Black teenager, Isaiah Lewis, last year.

Since the death of George Floyd in May, Hubbard had become active in discussing social and racial issues on Twitter, and he had become a voice in the fight for the empowerment of college athletes.
