Penn State Assistant Says Nittany Lions Dropped Recruit Over “Social Media Presence”

Dropped another prospect this AM due to his social media presence…Actually glad I got to see the ‘real’ person before we offered him.

Let this be a lesson for all the young recruits out there. Penn State didn’t drop the recruit because he was active on Twitter, but because he conducted himself in a negative manner that would reflect poorly upon the program. Not every thought that passes through your mind should be put on social media, you guys.
