Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Are Apparently Scheduling Games Based on Retweets

Nigel Hayes is returning to Wisconsin for his senior year after briefly dipping his toe in the NBA Draft pool. Yesterday Hayes sent out this tweet which should lead you to believe that Wisconsin associate head coach Lamont Paris told the forward from Toledo that if he got 50,000 retweets, Wisconsin would schedule an away game against the University of Toledo.

How great is it that “get X number of RTs and X will happen” has finally come to big time collegiate athletics scheduling? Retweets may be our best chance at reuniting the original Big East. Or expanding the college football playoff to 16 teams. We can fix everything wrong with college athletics. We just need to believe retweet.
