Oregon - interesting comment from Connor Mitch

It's also possible he was hacked. Kids do that to each other all the time.

Could be.

That 100 million dollar donation compliments of Nike doesn't hurt

You can go through the proving ground and find lots of tweets from recruits/commits that have remained on the board. I have also seen plenty of tweets from Frank Martin (and other coaches) that stay on the board.

I know that rule was established for a purpose, but half of these kids commit these days by twitter and there is no way that is going to stay off of a message board. Frank Martin shares a ton of good info via twitter about his team, etc. Also, these coaches, players, and recruits no good and well that everything they type is going to be shared these days. My understanding is that back when this rule was established it was because some players (or someone like that) got upset because something was shared on the message board that they had put on their facebook status. Social networking was just catching on and I think it surprised some players what all was shared. There is no way that argument can be made anymore.

In fact, the rules you posted state that you aren't even supposed to reference a tweet (with the example of Blake Mitchell). Well that isn't working out real well considering that is how the board finds out about where kids are committing almost every day. So if Na'Ty Rodgers tweets "I have committed to SC" we are supposed to wait until a third party writes it so we can share it?

Edit - Maybe the mods are still trying to take down tweets on the board and they just can't keep up with them all. I don't know. It is just my opinion that that is not realistic. Especially when the rule you posted states that you aren't even supposed to reference tweets. That doesn't work.

I didn't make the rules, I just reference them.

Would not surprise me.

Pete Carroll got the f out of dodge too.

I guess that depends on what you did with that 100 million dollars as well.

That tweet will most likely lead Connor to an interview with the NCAA. You don't say something like that at not have it come back around. This is serious sh*t.

Let's not be ridiculous.
