Just curious why people are annoyed by this. These tweets are NOT meant for you, they’re meant for the kids.

Some of you are a little too emotionally involved. These coaches don’t care what you think. They’re doing this for the recruits and nobody else.

If you don’t like them, don’t look at them. Problem solved.

Wrong thread, obviously, but I feel for Coach Locksley. He's in for a long, excruciating season.
That's hilarious, one of Gattis biggest issues with play design was spacing. He struggled to get our WRs open and It killed our offense last season. I got a feeling we will see a lot more separation this season.

100000% and I don't know why this is so **** hard for people to understand years into the social media era of recruiting. Seriously so many fans are so dumb it boggles my mind they can even navigate accessing the internet and reading posts on this site. Imagine if coaches took some of our fans advice and didn't make a big deal and build up hype on social media for an impending commitment just because the kid was only a 3 star or whatever. "Sorry, pal, we're privately glad you're committing and think you're underrated by the recruiting services but we will look like chumps if we hype you up on Twitter because you're not a big deal. Congrats on joining the family."

It's called marketing, guys. It's part of recruiting. It's a necessary evil (if you see it negatively, many don't). No need to catch feelings. Everything is done with purpose.

Marketing, to a certain extent, yes, but mainly to potential recruits/transfers. It’s also done to encourage and reinforce interactions and conversations had with recruits/portalers. It’s all geared towards a specific audience, actual potential recruits or transfers. If it creates buzz among the fans, great. But I don’t think that’s the primary goal.
