From digital distractions to the vociferous debate over paying college stars, being a student-athlete is harder than ever in 2016.

Our latest entry to the list of potential pitfalls? Former pornstars putting you on blast after what was supposed to be a private conversation. Just ask Ole Miss star Chad Kelly.

Since her work falls outside our area of expertise, we'll let Wikipedia introduce Mia Khalifa, whom the user-generated online encyclopedia identifies as a "social media personality best known for her brief and successful career as a pornographic actress and adult model in 2014–2015."

She's also a big fan of Florida State, one of the nation's college football powerhouses. Florida State played Ole Miss, another football factory, in a showdown on Monday. After Florida State's 45-34 win, Khalifa shared a Twitter screenshot of Kelly inviting her to the game after "sliding into her DMs," as the kids say.

It's relatively innocent stuff by DM standards: Kelly gives Khalifa his Snapchat name, invites her to the game and asks what she thought of Last Chance U, a show about college football players.

But after her Seminoles beat Kelly's Rebels, Khalifa couldn't resists adding insult to injury by sharing their conversation for her 1.17 million followers.

Khalifa even added a dig: "Shoulda spent more time in your playbook and less time in my DMs."

Damn. Damn! Dammmmmn.

Kelly's Twitter account had been deleted by late Tuesday morning, according to multiple reports from college football sites. (For the record, he threw for four touchdowns and more than 300 yards against Florida State, but tossed three interceptions and lost a fumble as well.)

As noted by The Big Lead, this is not the first time Khalifa has shared a screenshot of a prominent athletes hitting on her via Twitter.

Last year, an NFL player tried to connect with her when she was in Miami. Khalifa responded by posting a screenshot of his direct messages, as well has her replies, which stated she was indeed in Miami, "With my boyfriend Who's [sic] dick game is A1."

What a time to be alive. Truly. Be careful out there, you crazy kids.
