Twitter for College Athletics Fans

December 15th 2008

Q. A friend shared with me that many professional sports teams are using Twitter as a part of their social media to communicate scores, ticket specials and other team news and updates.  Do you feel this is also something college athletics could benefit from using for its fans?

A. There’s no question college athletic programs can benefit from using Twitter and you can find many professional sports examples on Twitter to get you started. You can follow The Telios Group on Twitter by clicking here to see examples of updates and ticket promotions being posted by some of the professional sports teams we’re following.

    Absolutely! There are die hard fans out there that want to be kept up to date on their favorite colleges. I think about all the times I attempted to watch a game via GameTracker only to find that the schools don’t have it available. Then I’m forced to wait until Sports Information updates the sites to get the results, which could be late at night as they do bulk updates for all the events for the day. Especially as we get to the NCAA playoffs and may not be accessible to the internet, I’d be able to use my pda to know if Utah volleyball beat UW or not.
