Fans can send Bonani messages via Twitter

JULY 19, 2009

USF sophomore kicker Maikon Bonani is resting in a Tampa hospital after a 35-foot fall Saturday while working at Busch Gardens. Bonani has a fractured vertebra but no other longterm injuries and is said to be in good spirits, and we can now share a way for Bulls fans to pass along get-well messages to the 20-year-old kicker.

Bonani has a page at Twitter.com -- his updates are protected, meaning that he must approve any follower before they can read what he posts. (He has not posted anything since his accident). What any fan on Twitter can do is send him a message -- just start the tweet with @Bonani28 and he'll be able to aread what you write.
