Wow, you guys have completely overreacted to this. The OP came on here in an attempt to share the fact that one of our future players is doing something positive in his community, and all you can do is bash him for adding the future player on Facebook....ridiculous.
+1 Let's not forget we live in the Twitter age where people's statuses are there to look at 24/7. FB is a public forum. To me it is no different than reading someone's status that you went to HS with that you have no intention of ever seeing or talking to again. I'd say 90% of my friends on FB are just people from my past that mean relatively nothing to me.
I've added recruits to FB in the past stating I'm an ISU fan and welcome aboard.
That being said, I delete them as a friend after saying "Welcome". I really have no interest in being "friends" with them. Just want to give ISU fans a good name, let the players know we appreciate them
CHOOSING Iowa State. JG sounds like he cares about things other than football, so he's cool with me.
I also sent a few messages back and forth with Jon Vilma about 2-3 years back. Just said I really liked him at The U and wish him well. He responded quite a few times just talking Hurricane football and how he was doing with the Jets. Super cool gesture to take time out to chat with a fan!!!
I don't see anything wrong with checking a FB status. That is what they are there for. Kinda like sitting outside a 1st story bedroom window, it's there for a reason right?
