Pollard on Deadspin

Personally, I agree with what most of he's saying. I thought it was interesting when the tweets were showing up in my feed, kinda cool to see it on Deadspin.
I agree with what he is saying 100%, but he probably should of not said it as I see no way it can help recruiting (not saying it can hurt, but definitely does not help)
Eff Pollard, what about our very own TXCYCLONES on Deadspin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In my opinion, his tweets are far from a tirade. He is stating his long held opinion on this subject. Personally, I do not see why it is getting so much publicity today; especially on KXnO. Personally, I would be o.k. with a small monthly stipend being paid to football and men's basketball players; however, I do not think there is a way to make it work due to Title IX. Go Cyclones!
We don't need another arena football, I agree with that. Student-athletes do get their hand held to graduation if they want to be successful which leads to a lot more money down the road in their careers on top of free school.
Obviously my thoughts are out there now. I just think this has the potential for some backlash at a time (W/L record) where we need all the help we can get.
Twitter is not the place to make a stand as an AD whether he is right or wrong. While I don't disagree with him, this was a mistake in my opinion.
He has the ability to take a stand and voice his opinion in lot's of different situations. Why Twitter?

As far as I can tell Pollard pee'd in Miller's Cheerios at some point. That degenerate gambler will take any opportunity to trash on Pollard.
