The Twitter Phone Book For ACC, Big Ten, SEC, Pac 10 Coaches and More

1 of 52

It seems like everyone has either a Facebook, a Myspace, a Twitter, or a combination of all of the above. College football head coaches are no exception.

Many have a twitter account to express how excited they are for an upcoming game, or how proud they are of their players, etc.

This is yet another technological tool that can and I am sure has been used in recruiting.

Now I understand that not all accounts are the actual coach. Some are PR and media relations guys with the university running the account for the coach, while some accounts are the actual man himself.

What I have done is looked up every coach on twitter, to the best of my ability, and found out if they had a twitter account.

Here is simply what I call the FBS coaches twitter phone book, and it starts in alphabetical order according to the coach's last name of course....
