He understood. He just chose to respond to the first sentence and ignore the last one. Politically savvy move on his part - kid is a diplomat.

Me: @MalikAbu_ Congrats on your choice to NCST. Disappointed you didn't choose #UConn. Maybe we'll see you in Storrs in 2 yrs a la @rpurvis5.

AMA: Appreciate it!

I don't know whether he understood what I meant :p
Sorry not really important but....


First two sentences are fine. Last sentence makes you come across as disingenuous and bitter.

I talked to him after his commitment and he's not a fan of people like you at all. Personally, I don't blame him. There's no need to do this to him or anyone else in the same situation.

Tweeting kids thinking of going to college in any way is ridiculous to me but I'm 53 and piss a lot now so take it for what it's worth!:oops:

Sorry guys. Didn't mean it in a negative way. It was a joke, but I can see how it looks bad. I won't do it again. As far as tweeting recruits, I'm 17 myself so I'm their age or a little younger. I'm no creep.

No need to apologize, some people here are a bit overly sensitive when it comes to tweeting at kids. The kid is 17, not 7 - a little ribbing isn't going to keep him up at night.

It's mostly 35+ year old guys bitching at you, so I wouldn't sweat it. That said, stuff does get religiously misinterpreted on the internet.

Yeah but you kinda acted like one. Not a big deal, just treat it as a life lesson.
