      coaches that tweet want their tweets seen and followed widely --
      it is one of the few ways they can communicate pretty freely and even be seen by recruits,
      that the NCAA has not regulated tightly!

            Very much agree... But I wonder how the NCAA could regulate a coach's twitter account short of banning the use of twitter altogether. In the past, I have seen some twitter accounts by coaches such as Tom Crean that I know were complete BS when I read them. I stopped following Crean on twitter because of that.

              Actually -- although there are no special rules regarding tweeting --
              all tweeting is covered by and regulated by the same NCAA rules that say a coach cannot say certain things in public -- whether tweeting or commenting on TV or to the press..

              such as...but not limited to...
              any details on any unsigned recruits, or any info that might be used for or interpreted as trying to improperly recruit or influence recruits or gain unfair advantage with recruits...

              So this is why some coaches stay a million miles clear of even the perception of cheating and DON'T use twitter...while others try to toe the lines and not break any NCAA rules but use twitter to keep their name out there and sell their institution and program........

                Ok... We all know what the rules are... But the reason I stopped following Tom Crean on Twitter, is that he tweeted how thrilled he was to have Snoop Dog on campus for a concert that night. I called BS on that one! He is still promoting IU, but in a different way.....

                  Snoop helped ISU land JW.

                    If this is true I wouldnt share that...

                    Also, if true, I'm glad BU didn't get him. Lol

                      It's not Jank's fault that the concert fell on the same weekend as JW's official visit.

                      Also, if true, why would that matter? lol

                          Very true.

                          There is a lot of work that he needs to put in before he reaches his full potential.

                            I don??™t know if Coach Ford has a Twitter account. I do know that his former team, the kids he referred to as ???family??? as week before he left, found out about his signing at Bradley via Twitter. Maybe his agent tweets for him?
