Well said, 2006alum. I've always liked Terry, but Nneka is not only on my Mt. Rushmore of Stanford athletes, she's also there for her personal qualities as well. Class personified.

Again, he's said nothing. Why further the speculation?

So far he’s just a pouter.

Does he have siblings to complain on his behalf?
I agree that Nneka seems to have conducted her self irreproachably btw.

Twitter = Athlete Yelp. Perhaps he's just blowing off steam.
And ... Terry is only 20 years old and has lived a privileged high-level athlete adolescence. People grow up, 20 year olds learn the shocking revelation that life costs money, burning bridges is costly, and once you're earning paychecks your parents/school won't always pay. I have a 20 year old learning some of the same lessons right now!
If this blows over he gets a one time pass from me. Call me back once he's lived a little, right?
