Several on here who are boosters have tweeted kids. It is what it is, NCAA ain't doing anything about it. Kevin Sumlin tweeted a pic with kid who hadn't signed yet and nothing happened. Too hard to monitor social media, NCAA behind the times and it's beyond obvious

Is Quoting his tweet the same as tweeting at someone? Asking for a friend

I wouldn't think so.

In my twisted mind, if you tweet to a player, you're in the wrong. If you quote their tweet and say something about the player, you're fine. A lot of times they'll retweet what you said about them too but because you didn't say it to them, just about them, you're good.

Well, I had my GMG account suspended for a month the last time I commented on this topic. But I will say, every fan base with a presence on social media does not adhere to any of these "rules" in any way, shape, or form. It appears we are being sheep in this regard, while they are being lions.

Full Disclaimer: I am not condoning directly tweeting any player, recruit or commit. I am just stating an observation.

I would say yes retweeting i dont think so, or liking it. quoting it I would stay away from. Tweeting at them to commit bad news bears.

Looked like his Birthday, maybe that tweet was completely unrelated to his recruiting.

Uhm... Doing what???

BTG_Fan1 · June 8, 2017

No idea but he did tweet earlier that he had big news, then a couple hours later he tweeted about his ACL.

As bad as this sounds, if its an ACL maybe he ends up sticking with us because others lose interest

Yeah. It's as bad as it sounds. Maybe worse.

C'mon, man.

Not wanting to prevent him from getting anymore offers.

Other schools may dump him because of an injury. UNT is not likely to withdrawal an offer from someone so talented.

Above everything else, I hope he is healthy.

Honestly not trying to be sanctimonious here, just trying to remind that these students are not commodities.

It's 2017. Teams don't dump commits for just a torn ACL anymore, and haven't for a while. One of my teammates picked up all of his offers while recovering from his torn ACL. Especially if it's just the player's first torn ACL.

Play the game Antonio. Right now, you're committed to the best school of your offers... and you have a lot. You get an offer from a school you like better, take it.
We know you're a smart guy, because you saw through TXTech's facade to see a nasty hole of a town with a crap school.
Baylor ain't better, so we'd better not catch you flipping there.
UT/A&M/OU come calling? Can't blame you.

Weren't we all excited when UNT got Rod Young to flip to us from Nevada? Why aren't we upset at Rod for not keeping his word?

Because Rod proved to be an intelligent young man and picked the right school.
