It's no secret that college football programs are becoming more and more aware of their players' and recruits' social media activity. (Here's a CBS Sports article on Kentucky and Louisville keeping tabs on their basketball players ... in 2012.) But a photo from SMU shows that that level of awareness might be even more detailed than you'd think.
From the Twitter account of Mustangs defensive coordinator Van Malone, a sampling of the team's record-keeping on one anonymous recruit:
We have a team of people who monitor what recruits are putting on social media. Watch what you tweet and retweet. pic.twitter.com/MNjrwSbuEd

It's been said many, many times before, but looking at this, there's nothing to do but say it again: Kiddos, watch what you Tweet, or Instagram, or Facebook.
