Wait which guy is that? the one with kids in his floors and sh#t? I could go out and ACTUALLY be creepy if you'd like. I suppose I could ask boxers/briefs, favorite kinda bj; road head, 69, pornstar, etc. I could ask what their perfect first date would be... You guys wanna find that stuff out, cause I'm down!

People are arguing two different points - is it "legal" vs. will you get punished.

Since everyone likes the analogies, here's one: If you go out on the highway and drive 100 mph but don't get pulled over, does that mean it's fine to drive that fast or did you just get away with it? If you keep doing that will it increase the chances that you will get caught?

That's a good comparison, but it's not the same. Speeding laws are enforceable. Tweeting and Facebook rules are not, unless other rules are getting violated, such as illegal benefits.

Do you even know what an analogy is? You get so hung up on whether the example (the analogy) is an exact comparison you entirely miss the point the person is making.

You're so consumed with being right that you're incapable of having a basic conversation.

You're really the one that's going to make that statement?... k...

 
If you're going to use an almost perfect comparison, I think speeding would probably work. But not 100 mph. We're talking about driving 60.5 mph in a 60 mph speed zone. If you get pulled over, either they are looking for something else such as drunk drivers (the analogy there for recruiting would be illegal benefits) or the cop is just a total asshat. THAT is the analogy to use in this situation.

I think the point is that, no matter what the "speed" is, you can do it over and over and over and over again. Eventually you will get caught. It is NOT illegal, until you get caught.

Even I can understand this.

 
Are you guys still bickerin about this sh#t? I keep coming back to find something new that's funny and all i see is you bitches talkin about hashbrowns and speeding tickets and twidder and such.

 
I see nothing wrong with following a Recruit/Player on twitter. Tweeting or interacting with them is something that should be avoided.

Why take the risk of getting us in trouble with the Ncaa. Also think it's just a little too weird.

It's like you don't even know me.

Sometimes I wonder where our relationship is headed. :(

that is thorough. also, our relationship is stronger than ever. you do a great job on the board knapp as a poster and mod; however, i got to take advantage whenever there is an opportunity to argue with you, otherwise you just ignore me.

i do not want to back down, because i do not see anything wrong with two kids tweeting each other about football just because one of them is being recruited. however, i will concede it is against one of the ncaa's inane rules and their inane interpretations of their own rules (which i always knew); as such, it is not a good idea to tweet recruits. i, personally, just do not see anything wrong with it.

 
i wonder how many people who think this is creepy are on twitter. i know knapp is an active tweeter. as a tweeter i seem to think that if it is a true conversation, it is rather innocuous.

i hope we all realize how stupid of a violation this is. was it a violation when all the husker fans went to watch johnny stanton play in cali.? if a high schooler decides to play for neb. and tries to convince his friend to go there, is that a violation? so many people on twitter are anonymous, what if they are just posing as a fan for nefarious purposes? a general fan on twitter has little to no influence, if anything it cuts both ways and they probably scare kids away.

again, i realize it is a violation, but it is utterly ridiculous and demonstrates how the ncaa has no idea what it is doing and what it is trying to regulate.

also, if there are any nu compliance officers on here, you can fall back on plausible deniability.
