Texas Tech football coach bans players from using Twitter

LUBBOCK, Texas -- Texas Tech players have been banned from having Twitter pages.

Coach Mike Leach announced the move Monday after one of his linebackers noted the coach's tardiness to a Sunday meeting, a day after the Red Raiders lost 29-28 to No. 12 Houston.

According to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, linebacker Marlon Williams asked on his Twitter account why he was still in a meeting room when "the head coach can't even be on time." That tweet has been deleted.

Offensive lineman Brandon Carter also had a Twitter page. After the loss to the Cougars, he tweeted: "This is not how I saw our season."

On Sunday, Carter was suspended indefinitely for violating team rules and his Twitter page was nowhere to be found.
