NCAA enhances social networking security
This shouldn’t surprise anyone (because UK fans are absolutely crazy) but the NCAA has received some not-so-friendly messages thanks to its recent rulings, specifically the Enes Kanter decision. In fact, Kentucky fans have been so outspoken, the NCAA had to block users from writing on its Facebook wall. Kentucky fans flooded the book of faces with so many Free Enesisms and words of disgust that the association had to ban EVERYONE from interacting with NCAA President Mark Emmert on his fan page. (They should just be lucky he has any fans in the first place.)
Via phone and e-mail, blogs and social networks, Kentucky followers have been particularly outspoken, flooding Emmert’s Facebook page with so much vitriol that the NCAA was compelled to block posts by outsiders. Without specifying the source or subject, Williams says he got an e-mail a couple of weeks ago warning, “You’d better check your car.”
So let me get this straight, the NCAA blocks people from writing on Facebook but allows them to walk right through the front door of the NCAA headquarters and talk face-to-face with a spokesman?
Works for me.

Free Facebook!
Bless their hearts.
Free Enes, FaceBook, and Fake Gimel Martinez!!!
That’s ok we are ban from their site, they are ban from our state.
Thanks for making our fan base look bad dumbasses! I’m sure this will be covered by every media outlet on the planet.
Free Enes, Free Facebook, Free God’s Gift! Sorry my wall post to Mark Emmert has ruined all of your friend request denials.
All your facebook are belong to us.
who knows what evil lurks within the hearts of men … and messages left on the book of faces
5 – It is funny that you care what people think of our fan base. The NCAA is inconsistent, corrupt, inept, self-serving, and apparently, thin skinned. It deserves much worse than this.
Social Networking DDoS…nice. BBN is a botnet
They’re making Kentucky fans out to be the escape goat.
Who cares? All I have to do is look in my underware to know I don’t have any “Big Boy Balls” to play with after a couple of stupid rulings For KU, OSU, and my favorite STUPID ruling, Scam Newton and Auburn. But, someone’s gonna hafta tell me something, did I do something to the BBN? Although I no longer have any “NADS”, something just tells me that they are upset about something.
The personal threats are embarassing
#11..where do I buy one of these “escape goats”. The Houdini of Goats is upon us.
14 = clueless of KSR speak. sad
5) we as the BBN needs to have our voices heard. We have more compassion about our school than most folks do. Had the NCAA hadn’t made such bone headed moves for KU, Ohio State, and Auburn AKA..KNOWN CHEATERS and ruled against Enes, I feel UK and all others who bleed BLUE would’ve thought the ruling was fair and just. They Cheated and knew it was wrong, Enes’s dad didn’t know all the rules for living in Turkey and they punished his son.
14 – I HAVE AN ESCAPE GOAT FOR YOU. ADD ME ON FB!!!
We need to put together a Million Person March.
Les Miles just hired Steve Kragthorpe as his OC to “upgrade the offensive performance of our football team”
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m sure the posters did Kentucky proud with their command of the English language.
Great a few of our fans are idiots, which we already know. Now, every swinging dick in the country with an axe to grind against us will try to make us all look like idiots.
#10 I just need to know if they got my 5000 “Free Enes You Ba**ard!” emails…. My attention wanderd in about 15 minutes “I had aspirations of sending 50-100k” lol but since it was only about 5k, yeah NCAA! That was me! What? What? You ba**ards!
#9 He was under the impression that our fan base wasn’t already seen as “dumba**es” lol Ever heard of a guy named Randal Cobb that said some true things on twitter? and got plastered for it… by a bunch of ruh*ards…. for speakin the truth!
“We have more compassion about our school than most folks do.”
I don’t think that word means what you think it means…
NCAA had this coming
Keep the facebook page – get rid of the dummy – emmert –
Does Emmert have a daughter on FB …then we can post to her… and tell her to pay it forward to her cowardly father
