SEC Football Tweets of the Week: Arkansas WR Marquel Wade Back in School
Every Friday on the SEC Blog, we will feature the tweets of the week from SEC players, coaches and media personalities.
Arkansas is counting on wide receiver Marquel Wade to be a playmaker in 2012, but the sophomore wide receiver's status is up in the air after he, Maudrecus Humphrey and Andrew Peterson were arrested for residential burglary on May 12.
John L. Smith told Matt Jones of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette that the three players are still suspended, but Wade appears to have taken a small step towards returning to the team by enrolling in summer classes:
"Back in school!!! #Blessedtime to grind

Wade is a big piece of the Razorback puzzle in 2012. He had a very strong spring and has been compared to former Arkansas wide receiver Joe Adams.
Speaking of wide receivers, South Carolina wide receivers coach Steve Spurrier Jr. apparently was concerned about wide receiver Shamier Jeffery's status on the team. He took to Twitter to get some clarification:
"hey- u still play football here?@Jefferyboy8

ESPN, CBS and NBC all announced limited college football television this week, including several SEC games on ESPN and CBS.
Bleacher Report's own Adam Kramer had some thoughts on the television schedule and how it relates to tailgating:
"2:30 pm kickoffs are great for many reasons. Pretty much all those reasons involve alcohol.

LSU fans might argue that night games are preferable, but there's an argument to be made for balanced pregame and postgame festivities.
Alabama long-snapper Carson Tinker is always good for a good Nick Saban quote, and he tweeted one this week:
"You are what you think you are -Saban
— Carson Tinker (@carsontink) June 2, 2012"
No word on whether or not Saban was channeling his inner Dennis Green.
Georgia freshman running back Todd Gurley arrived on campus and needs your help, Athens residents:
"This campus is to big I'm lost rite now
— Todd Gurley (@TG1UNO) June 5, 2012"
Have a great weekend folks.
