Smart. I wish Dak, Fletcher Cox, and KJ had done so as well, unless I missed theirs.

Yep, awesome idea.

But because SPS was made for bitchin', I'll repeat myself from the previous two NSDs where we've asked former players to tweet—why don't we ask them to do this year round? Pick one or two guys a month, ask them to tweet, use the signing day hashtag, and build/keep the momentum going.

I can't wait to see Nkemdiche's tweets. Or maybe Greg Hardy's. Or Brandon Bolden's. That ought to help Ole Miss with their top 60 class.

Great to see us being proactive in recruiting. And great to see some good Bulldog's helping us out. Many thanks to those guys.

No, see, you're doing it wrong. You're supposed to complain that none of the guys tweeting are Offensive Linemen. ***

I foresee dak working with the university in a promotional standpoint moving forward and I can't think of anyone better to do it.

I chortled.

If we signed four 5 star OL on Wednesday they would say their elbows are too pointy or they have bad pad level.**

This is being proactive to you in recruiting?

Good move, but should be a move we should expect. The NFL is one of our bigger draws to recruits.

Undrafted but has been on the Bengals practice squad I believe. Not sure if he was ever on the active roster this year.

Yes. This is being proactive

Not everyone does this. Great to hear such good things from these former players.

Dak Tweets

<blockquote><p>A Program & Coaches who Value Hard Work & The Importance of Family! I Signed, Bought in & now I'm Forever Thankful. Thank You <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HailState?src=hash">#HailState</a></p>— Dak Prescott (@dak) <a href="https://twitter.com/dak/status/826456552991240192">January 31, 2017</a></blockquote>


Hard to put a price on how valuable this is for our football program. Thank you Dak

Nkendiche's would be something like..You will love the plantation. I'm pretty sure I did based on what everybody tells me.

Dak made ~$3k per tweet about MSU this season in relation to that Coca-Cola sponsorship he had. Might be out of our price range.

I think being proactive would be doing this well in advance of the deadline.

Not everyone does this. Great to hear such good things from these former players.


Unless two days before the deadline is proactive to you.

It is proactive to me and anyone with a dictionary

Unless two days before the deadline is proactive to you.

2 days before or 6 months before - it is taking action to assess a need before it happens. Reactive would be congratulating recruits after they sign.

Another example - it would have been proactive to google "Mississippi state" and "Bloomberg terminal" and seeing the answer pop up immediately rather than starting an OT thread on a sports board asking about it.
