They are definitely reading social media comments by players...

Yuri Wright's tweets are why Michigan stopped recruiting him

QUOTE:

"Yuri Wright, the 4-star CB from New Jersey, was once though to be headed to Michigan in the 2012 class. Earlier this month, the Michigan coaching staff took a deeper look into the prospect after a concerned alumnus sent the school verbatim tweets that Yuri had posted on his Twitter account that were both racially and sexually unacceptable."

I have a feeling this is why we started to cool on Stefon Diggs a while back.

i don't want these types of players at tech anyway. not only is that just stupid to post up on social media where everyone can see...it's just stupid period. classless...

 

[Hokie200proof]

I can relate. There's been more than a couple of mornings where I think to myself "I'm starving and i want some pussy right now".






I just don't have a twitter account to share such gems with the world.

 

[sparko]

Cyrus Jones has used some inappropriate language on twitter too

Eli Harold takes the cake.

Based on the UNC/Marvin Austin fiaso I wonder if schools are beginning to hire/assign people to keep an eye on what's being said by scholarship athletes via social media? Has Tech moved in this direction? If not, they really should consider doing so.

We need an NCAA football version of this. Maybe with Big Marv.

Schools SHOULD be reading these tweets. It's public media, and indirectly represents the schools.

Recruits need some instruction in how to use social media these days.
