You mean to tell me that there are actually people that stalk 17 year olds on twitter? Seriously guys?

I'm going to invite all my recruit friends over for a BBQ. I sent invites via Twitter. BOOM!

NCAA suck it.

i laugh when things like this are said. all of us are following what these kids are doing on a message board... waiting for the next bit of info on them to be released. waiting to find out whats going on in their lives (recruiting related) to see if they will be attending our school. its so bad to tweet them and ask them a question or say something like "Go Vols", but its completely ok to ask them questions and get a pic with them in person if you bumped into them at the stadium or somewhere else. its so bad to talk to them today, but once they get on campus (a lot within the next 3 weeks) its acceptable. not everybody is over 50 and not everybody is a creep.

I don't even feel comfortable asking them for autographs at organized team events. I remember going to the O&W game a few years back amd sitting close to the sideline. Arian Foster was signing autographs and my (then) girlfriend (now wife) told me I should go get my hat signed. I said "I'm almost 30 years old. I don't feel right asking someone almost a decade younger than me for an autograph."

I'm not sure even the NSA could figure out who's a real fan of whom and who's fake. The NCAA obviously has no hope. This might be the silliest rule they've got.

Don't worry they will hammer us for it and let others get away with it i.e. Mo Couch Bama fiasco.

I'll take the other kind of green. Tweeting at recruits is like spitting on the sidewalk. Both illegal and stupid.

Let's start a twitter account @AlabamaAthletics . Then we can tweet all their recruits asking if they have received their checks yet :dance2:

What makes you think we would be part of it if someone forms a SUPER CONFERENCE in football within the next few years. How would they pick who gets in? Somehow, I don't think our recent history would get us invited.
