I hope we follow suit with our scholar-athletes as well, especially the basketball team.

"Ole Miss officials said Monday they did not force Johnson to delete his account." <span style="font-weight: bold;">Yeah right......</span>
Northcutt said <span style="font-weight: bold;">Johnson has not yet received social media training, which
is scheduled for all athletes at Ole Miss in the fall semester</span>. Players
are expected to sign a social media policy at that time, and violations
of the rules could result in suspension or a reduction in financial
aid, Northcutt said.

TSUN social media training

As for the future, Ole Miss will continue to closely monitor its
players' Twitter and Facebook accounts and educate players of its
dangers.<span class="aa"></span><span class="pp"></span>"<span style="font-weight: bold;">The NCAA
is viewing student-athletes' pages," Ball said. "That's how they're
making a number of these major infraction cases now</span>. Across the country,
especially at the BCS level schools, if you're not following your
student-athlete's social network page and things like that don't catch
your attention, you're kind of just asking for more problems."

I have talked to about this are pretty upset with CJ on this twitter deal. He has lost some ground with a bunch of their folks but nothing that can't be made up by earning a starting role and kicking some *** I guess.

b/c I would have hoped his play outshined his twitter ignorance. But since he is an Ole Miss guy - his tweets are ridiculous and he is a real threat to social media and all it encompasses.

What do they need social media training classes for?
