Probably Winston Shepard.

 Lavin's twitter feed should have its own sticky thread......

I'm actually surprised coach didn't start using his twitter feed earlier.  I read something the other day about how "personal messages" on facebook/twitter don't count as a text message under NCAA guidelines.   And for that reason coaches are using the social media sites more and more for recruiting purposes.

Edit:  Correction, I was wrong.   I looked at the article again.  NCAA rules prohibit text-messaging of any kind, and obviously limit the number of phone calls a coach can make, but during the contact periods there is no limit on private messages on twitter or facebook. 

Nevertheless, until they change the rules, this appears to be a major tool for coaches.

i don't think it's a coincidence that coach lav tweeted this tonight:

"Baron and Earl were both members of my first recruiting class (1997) along with current Johnnies assistant Rico Hines."

No.... it is not.

Meaning?  Something pending for us?  Choz?

Baron and Watson are members of the two teams that played at MSG tonight.

Was a 3rd PG in that class, but certainly not Rico.  It was Moose Bailey, who ALMOST joined the staff this year, before he landed the HC job at  Brentwood Hi.

I didn't think Rico was a PG, thats why I wrote that.

In Neal Nieves' blog this week, he thought Sheppard would wind up at SDSU when all was said and done.
