You know its a sad world when the NCAA compliance rules can be more complicating then GAAP for businesses. I mean you should be able to talk to a recruit or if they have a question you should be able to answer it instead of directing to proper personnel.... I get you arent allowed to pay or do favors, but I mean if its just a conversation and joking around to give a feel for the culture here who cares.

That appeared to be what one top recruit was doing on Tuesday, via the very public arena of Twitter. Yet, when the player publicly said he wasn't interested in Penn State any longer, something fascinating happened: Penn State fans swamped him with messages of support and seemed to convince him to keep considering the program after all, via the sheer force of positive feelings.
