What the hell??

Teenagers in whom they plan on investing 168k a year times four years
Re: What the hell??
The Observer needs to do a little research. This is extremely normal in recruiting these days and, in reality, the recruits absolutely love it.
I also like that the coaches are keeping tabs on what prospects post on Twitter. Character is a big deal and you can learn a lot about a kid by what he posts on social media.

Re: What the hell??
Just for reference, google 'worst athlete tweets' or 'funny athlete tweets.' One of them has already cost a kid a scholarship and had him banned from his old Catholic school.
I consider it an extension of the 'we will be checking up on you' approach that one would expect from a college coach. Didn't some coach ban his players from using it? Can't imagine this is any worse.

Love it
Re: What the hell??
Love how the SJWs are all against stuff like this. I recognized one of the SJW twitter handles in the article immediately as one of the worst offenders.

I'm not very up on things. Don't do Facebook even. Had to google for SJW. Glad I read this thread. Otherwise never would have seen the Tweets by Justin de Fratus and Michael Richards in one of the "funny athlete tweet" returns.

Sjw?
Social Justice Warriors. Typically pampered white millennials with a robust online presence who preach tolerance, but re-wrote the definition of tolerance to mean "you must agree with everything I say and think, and if you don't, you're a Nazi, xenophobe, misogynist, homophobe, and racist."

In other words, SJW is a synonym for "Idiot"?
