Eighty-one Under Armour All-Americans were asked which fan base was the most annoying on social media, and Tennessee was listed at No. 1 by nine prospects. Texas was listed by eight recruits, followed by Alabama (6), Michigan (5) and Florida, Miami, Nebraska and Texas A&M with four apiece.

Prospects arriving at the Under Armour All-America Game were surveyed if fans on social media have influenced their recruiting process, and 74 of 90 respondents said no. That number is surely refreshing to college coaches, but is still somewhat concerning that 17 percent of the respondents said they have been influenced by social interaction with fans.

Now someone who is less lazy than me should look at the Under Armour rosters and try to figure out who the 4 who listed us are.

 
Wonder where we'd rank if they flipped the q (best fans on twitter). Just curious. I think it's silly, but it obviously means enough to the kids today that it's a question they ask at the top game in high school fb.

 
Means we care about the program. Let's see the stats for the kids who eat up all of the attention they get from Husker fans. I'd rather have exposure than not being on any list like this due to disinterest or irrelevance. Annoying in a high school sense can correlate to "their fans are everwhere and blow up my feed." Those that have a problem with kids being tweeted at should come to the reality that it won't ever just stop.
