What The Hell Was Ron Zook Trying To Do On Twitter?

Trick luh the kids, and BHGP luh the Zooker. It's well-known. To that end, we follow his (usually) remarkably disappointing Twitter feed. There's none of the illegible exuberance displayed by guys like Tim Brewster and David Cutcliffe; it's just another boring coach's Twitter.

So imagine our surprise when we woke up this morning and saw these:

Please. Come here
about 7 hours ago from txt

Is that all U got
about 6 hours ago from txt

Based on the time estimations from Twitter, these went out around 3:45 AM CDT. So, um, what in the hell is going on? Who's he trying to have "Come here" early in the morning like that? Does his wife know what's going on?

To the Zooker's credit, there's nothing absolutely damning here; it's not like he said "balls deep in a collie all my dogfuckers say heeeeyyyyy" or "I swear I will give you $40,000 to come to Illinois" or anything. Still, maybe Twitter needs a disable feature between 10 pm and 5 am for certain people. And by "disable" I mean "redirect to BHGP's mailbox so we can continue to imagine coaches are trying to pick up chicks when they're shitfaced."

Oh, and lest we be accused of lying, here's a screencap from roughly 10 AM:

We eagerly anticipate his explanation, because if he's not trying to score a piece, this is just baffling.

This idea needs to be turned into a blog post immediately.

Usually when I'm drunk

and twitter I just tell people to fuck off and kiss my ass. Does this mean the Zooker is a better drunk than me?

I'm Banana dammit!!!

I hate to burst your bubble

but yes. It comes from all the practice he has.

My guess is

It has something to do with this.

Looks like Zooker had to go bail one of his boys out of jail.

Maybe

His bathroom stall foot-tap wasn’t being heard?

You guys are all off mark

I pray this is true…but I believe this was his drunken “sounding the horns”, if you will, to signal his twitter battle against Brewster. His first message “is that all U got” is referring to brewster’s already highly publicized twitter rambles, but he was too drunk that early in the morning to remember his rival’s name, so he referred to him simply as U…hinting at minnesota’s claim as “The U” despite Miami’s clear previous claim at this title. (Also its pretty sad when you can claim Miami as a more legitimate university…in anything…for that matter)

So there you have it. LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!

The real question.

After perusing the Zookers followers for waaaaay too long at work.
Why does JLeman not have a twitter account that i know of. How can we get america’s greatest lover of freedom and all derivatives of freedom on Twitter?
