Q: Does Byrne keep track of what is said on message boards? And if so, does he think that is a disastrous habit for any AD to have?
A: Byrne: "I'll read your fine blog, you can put that on there. And I'll read the Clarion-Ledger blog, and we try to keep up with local media. … As far as the message boards, now, we've got some poeople in our department that keep eye on it in case there's some false information out there."

good question. i've always liked to hear various ADs and Head coaches perspective on that, and in my opinion, that's the correct one to have. don't consume the department with it, but keep an eye on it...

And just think, LT could barely operate e-mail.

I wonder if he wants to know what the false rumors are so that he can have a good laugh.

I can 100% confirm that the MSU legal department monitors this board and knows a lot more about it than you may think. Whether it's an every day thing or whether someone is specifically hired to do monitor it or not, I have no idea. I do know that they've gone after e-mail addresses and contact info for posters here on various occasions, though.

is Byrne.

Probably not true, but it is in my personal Internet kingdom. So, don't ruin it for me.
