They would literally have to punish every program in the country you moron. Jesus you're paranoid. Coaches and athletic departments have zero control over the actions of fans on social media.

Lol at anybody who thinks fans shouldn't tweet at recruits or possible transfer candidates. Everybody is doing it and it's a free fucking country. The NCAA has no power in college football much less the real world where people not employed by these programs can do whatever the fuck they want on social media and it can't be stopped.
I will laugh so hard if this happens.
Being positive about the school that you support, etc. makes a ton of sense. Let the kids drive their social media interests. Being all over HS kids to me is crossing the line a bit.
But when you start going down the path of actively and directly contacting kids while putting messages, etc. together are crossing a line that IMO you shouldn't be crossing.
It should be really simple:
1) Support your school ... show that you care
2) Let the coaches and the University do the recruiting
The NCAA doesn’t do shit and it’s obviously helping in recruiting.
2) Just because laws in place aren't actively enforced doesn't mean that you should actively not care about breaking those laws
3) You have no idea whether this is actively helping recruiting or not and if it is to what degree it is ... your mindset is simply that because recruiting is going well and that the social media work is taking place, that there's a direct relationship. While not saying it's not helping in some manner, I guarantee that you're overinflating how much of a factor that it is.
Again, I've got no issue with being supporting and people showing that they care. That's awesome. But don't directly recruit ... that's just playing with fire IMO. Many of you were the ones that just months ago were actively going down the path of some dark areas that were far from accurate while also saying that recruiting was in the dumpster fire.
Rule #1 to anything should be "don't do something FS to the point that it hurts UW" ... PERIOD
Also sound like somebody that wasn't around in the early 90s when the PAC knocked UW down when they were good through any avenue possible ... simple solution is don't give them a reason to do so
IT IS at the end of the day the responsibility of the University to educate and monitor the actions of its boosters ... I hate to break that to you ... but that's real.
Forever, everybody was saying that what was going on with respect to AAU hoops was impossible to police, etc. etc.
History is littered with people that thought that nothing was going to happen and then it did
I agree with you in the sense that there's nothing from the NCAA at this point that would suggest that they have any path to policing it. That doesn't mean that they never will ...
All I'm advocating is that people be smart about what they are doing ... don't just act like it's the Wild Wild West -
If you can't see that the school sends that stuff out for plausible deniability, even @GrandpaSankey can't help you

There's no question it's a CYA type of behavior from the University'sSources said:If you can't see that the school sends that stuff out for plausible deniability, even @GrandpaSankey can't help you
But on the other hand, there's also actions to what they do in response where the people doing this lose big time (i.e. disassociated from the University) and whatnot ...
Perhaps if you don't feel like you have anything to lose then that's great ...
For others, perhaps it's not worth losing -

Dont you have to donate money or buy tickets (or season tickets) to be considered a booster? HHB is free last I checked, and by definition, anyone posting here and on Twitter is unlikely to be shelling out clams to this program. They barely getting out their basement.

Lol they're not even using their real names.
