Fake Recruiting Page

[GrizWin99]

This is disgraceful. Hopefully no potential recruits have been fooled by this page and sent film/info. We are all fanatics about our respective teams, but to stoop so low that you are potentially impacting a HS or College athlete is beyond me. Help report this page to get it taken down. Be better.

Well with the X handle "MSUBobcats25010", can't get anymore obvious that this is a fake account.

That’s what you would think, except there are already a few recruits following the page (including a transfer the Griz have offered) and Shaun Rainey is as well.

This is a clear NCAA violation. If I were that bub fan and I was in anyway associated with the bub athletic program -- donor, booster,
Ticket holder, etc -- I'd take that fucker down faster than you can say "sanctions", because he's putting the bub program at risk.

Would you elaborate? I have no background in law. How could the athletic department be held liable for the actions of a ticket holder, on social media? I can see the argument for anybody that is/has been employed by/donated to the university, but not simply a fan (which I assume this is).

Now changed his handle to “100% Recruiting”.

For the same reason UM athletics was held responsible for the actions of boosters handing a football player a hotdog.

It's why there's pages in the ncaa manual on booster compliance.

Totally understand that. I tried to specify that I was only questioning the ticket holder part. You said “doner, booster, ticket holder, etc” and while I agree with the first two, I don’t understand how a ticket holder’s actions could result in a penalty for the athletic department.

Ticket holders are technically considered boosters because they bought tickets that support the football program.

This is why I no longer use X .
Way too much of this crap

Hopefully someone reported this to the correct officials.

If it's still up after Christmas I'll send it to the bubs' associate AD in charge of compliance.

Just having them shit a brick would be worth it. And of course they'd have to self-report at that point.

Either the person deleted the account or X removed the account

Do you forget when the Griz got hit with violations due to boosters bailing them out of jail and when fans gave them hotdogs and stuff at the tailgate?

I might still notify the bubs about it. They really do need to self-report.

If for no other reason than they have the dumbest fucking fan base in America.
