Please. Trooper's probably egging him on.
I have no doubt he is. Their staff is trying to keep things stirred up and a no talent hack like Scarbinsky is the perfect mouthpiece to channell it. Pike is a crazy moron that's going to get lit up in SEC play and especially against Alabama's defense.

I'm confused. I thought recruits actions were reflective of the schools they represent speaking volumes to the type of leadership that school provides.....wait a minute, never mind.

I cannot tell you how much I hate facebook and twitter hate them. If yall get a chance watch the Social Network. The guy who invented facebook was an odd loner who had no friends and alienated everyone he had to work with. He basically saw the vanity of modern America and the need for acceptance and a voice and feeling important and exploited that and he's now the world's youngest billionaire. Again I hate twitter and facebook. Sure you use them for good but let's be honest they're are just begging to be abused. Twitter I think has really messed with some athletes. Between Lebron James expending all his energy during the 2011 Finals whining that the media and fans were being too hard on him and promising his best performance ever (and posting it for everyone to see talk about setting yourself up for failure) and Tebow getting his feelings hurt about something some guy said about how his accuracy is horrible and then posting an obviously emotional and upset response on twitter in which he truly comes across as a girl and posts a very personal story about it's been his dream since he was kid to be NFL QB and how if you wish hard enough and use enough pixie dust anything is possible blah blah blah. Hate it. Hate twitter hate facebook. People are meant to have real relationships with people they know and see everyday. What someone you've never met thinks about you shouldn't mean a damn thing.

...watch the Social Network. The guy who invented facebook was an odd loner who had no friends and alienated everyone he had to work with...
Not saying this is inaccurate, because I wasn't there, but I would never take anything I see in a Hollywood movie as 100% accurate. There are probably reasons Zuckerberg did not get behind the movie. Hollywood is in the business of putting butts in seats, not necessarily telling the most historically accurate story.

Yet you post on a message board?

Yes I'm a living contradiction most people with strong opinions are. I use TideFans to communicate with other people who love Bama football but I don't live or die by what anyone says. Plus I'm conversing with mostly men from age thirty-to-sixty so the whole social acceptance thing is out the window. TideFans is a quiet place. Not in the same universe as Twitter or Facebook

You just described 90% of all the engineering students, out there.

Including me. Might be "odd" to you, but is our "normal".

The rest of your post is ok. (I avoid doing business with companies that send me "Follow us on Face Book and Twitter" spam. That is what you used to have sales reps for. Leave that stuff for teenagers being teenagers.)

I'm debating on defending a Barn prospect... Oh what the heck.

Obviously, a highly publicized prospect has to handle himself better on a social media site than Pike has. But some of those tweets were in response to folks, maybe adults, harrasing a kid on twitter. Which I find deplorable. I wouldn't be happy about *U fans doing it to Bama commits and I'm not happy about our fans doing it to Pike.

*ducks*
