Although we lost a couple in-state recruits to other schools, and they only went after Engelhaupt as a plan C or D. Funny that he doesn't mention that.Yeah seriously what was he thinking...

Mavric Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 I mean ... I'm glad the NSAA is tackling the important issues. Seems that tweet like these may not be allowed anymore. Not sure how specific they'll be allowed to be. "Subtweeting" is the practice of tweeting about someone without sending them a notification about your tweet by mentioning their Twitter handle. Sometimes, this also means not even mentioning the person you're tweeting about by name but leaving readers to work out from context clues who it is you might be talking about. Usually this is passive-aggressive behavior intended that allows a Twitter user to speak negatively about another Twitter user without specifically mentioning them. But sometimes it's a tactic used by college football coaches to send public messages to players without running afoul of NCAA rules. According to the Texas A&M compliance office, it's now impermissible to subtweet recruits under certain circumstances. 247 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Perhaps it's only on nicknames for now but if they're going down that road, I'm guessing they'll shut all this down eventually. Here's an example of a tweet that'd no longer be proper under the new restrictions on nicknames. It's a January tweet from Texas linebackers coach Brian Jean-Mary on an in-home visit with four-star linebacker Jeffrey McCulloch, who's nicknamed "The Shark." McCulloch eventually signed with Texas. https://twitter.com/luc_brian/status/690353939326357505/ Quote Link to comment
Bigred_inSD Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Is this because the SEC fan base isn't smart enough to use twitter, so we have to shut it down? 1 Quote Link to comment
swmohusker Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Is this because the SEC fan base isn't smart enough to use twitter, so we have to shut it down? This is hilarious. Nick Saban doesn't understand twitter so the NCAA bans it. Quote Link to comment
wanderful Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 We can still do tweets like these as the players are not identifiable, like with using a nickname some of the banned tweets did. It's not like there's only one recruit in each state. Quote Link to comment
