LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) -Texas Tech players have been banned from having Twitter pages.
Coach Mike Leach announced the move Monday after one of his linebackers noted the coach’s tardiness to a Sunday meeting, a day after the Red Raiders lost 29-28 to No. 12 Houston.
According to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, linebacker Marlon Williams asked on his Twitter account why he was still in a meeting room when “the head coach can’t even be on time.” That tweet has been deleted.
Offensive lineman Brandon Carter also had a Twitter page. After the loss to the Cougars, he tweeted: “This is not how I saw our season.”
On Sunday, Carter was suspended indefinitely for violating team rules and his Twitter page was nowhere to be found.
The Red Raiders (2-2) host New Mexico (0-4) on Saturday.
