Look: OSU Fans Use Twitter to Recruit Barry J. Sanders

As a technical note, I believe tweeting at potential recruits is a minor NCAA recruiting infraction. However, the NCAA has no way of monitoring this type of behavior so it’s generally swept under the rug. Which is good, because following the news that Barry J. Sanders has been granted his release from Stanford, OSU fans have gone wild to recruit him on social media…

@BarryJSanders26 Going to Oklahoma State just makes sense. No doubt will play. Be a big playmaker and follow in your dads steps! #GoPokes

@BarryJSanders26 here's guessing Barry's twitter lights up like a candle. Maybe he will come play for the Aggies. Or the Pokes. Or someone.
