You can tell that he enjoys recruiting as much as he enjoys coaching..

You can only think it helps when he is sitting right next to the like of Calipari and Self on the recruiting trail. Recruits see this, and it does nothing but help our image.

PP4- do you really think that Calipari and Self need to improve their image by sitting next to LB? :lol:

Not sure I'm following your satire. Nothing was said about their image.

It is obviously a great time for SMU having a guy like LB representing our program but before we wax too lyrical about his tweets, I would point out that he isn't tweeting. One of his 19 staff or an SMU intern is.

It is probably him not an intern. Intern or SID would be more impersonal. Nice potshot at LB though. He does not tweet much but when he does it is probably him.

At least when LB got here, he admitted to having no idea how to tweet.

I didnt take it as a shot. Most coaches don't tweet proactively, and I know Brown doesnt 'follow' people on his own. That said, something about his tweets, scream they are him, and that Ulric is telling him to tweet on his way to or from an event.

I was in no way taking a shot at LB. I wear my Godfather shirt as proudly as the next guy and love what he's doing. I just remembered him saying he did not know how to tweet and I know that SMU does have students working on the social media side of things.

No problem. I am sure he has figured it out a little bit out by now. Because like Hoopmanx said that it's something about his tweets, scream they are him.
