I recently joined Twitter and follow a couple players here and there and recruits. I don't post anything or mention them, so I don't know if this is social networking acceptable or not.
Anyway, I see a lot of recruits talking about Bears and helping them get their followers up and mentioning them all together. When I click on them, a lot of them look to be smoking hot coeds based on their photos alone.
I also have never met one college aged dime piece who knew a bit or cared about recruiting.

You don't think??? Surely they aren't this sorry, right?

I've noticed this to

and I'm right there with you. I have never met a girl from State who cares at all about recruiting.

my only theory is that they are "football girls" and it's their job. No other way to explain it.

What was the Hooks recruiting dumpster fire about other than him raising his twitter numbers?

Yes, the Bears are targeting recruits on twitter. Looks like yall know how to copy and paste the content too. Send it to their compliance director. [email protected]

As for the girls, it is easy to set up a fake account and attach a picture.

Just sent him an email. Surely they are breaking a rule or six here, right? Anyway, I just told him it was time he took a closer look at things if he wanted his school to maintain any semblance of playing fair.

Several times I have followed a recruit on their signing day to see what they announced. Each time there will be a couple Bear hotties that I know already following. Last time, I said to one of them, "wow, you are following so and so? hardcore." Her reply: "Yeah but I have no idea why or who that is."

My only question is why aren't we doing this? We are going to have to seriously step up our game in recruiting. UM has always been much smarter than us in this area and we've got to close that gap.

It's not smarts, it's a lack of character on their part. You think we couldn't have figured out to waive sexy young broads in their faces if we wanted to?

Holy crap. The Bears are harassing the hell out of those guys. I'm not sure if it's a successful tactic or just damn creepy.

Either we haven't thought of it or we have and decided not to do it even though other schools (and not just Mississippi) do. Either way, we're being pretty damn stupid.

I think there's a word for that

Pimpin' ain't easy
