Minnesota football coach Tim Brewster is fired up about recruiting - even for Gophers wrestling

Here is the latest Tweet from Twitter-loving Tim Brewster, Minnesota head football coach:
Talk about recruiting, J Robinson just had the #1 ranked Wrestling class in the Nation! Great job J!!!
Brewster said he got hacked, and someone else somehow posted this message putting down Minneapolis Star-Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse that was on his page for a little while last month:
How would you like to wake up in the morning and look in the mirror…… if your [sic] Fat Pat.
This was excellent Hlog material, if I do say so myself, and it can be found here.
Play4brew is generally upbeat to the ultimate, full of praise, excitement and exclamation points. Always, always exclamation points. It's just a matter of how many.
Today, Minnesota wrestling coach Robinson got three exclamation points from Brewster.
Robinson's incoming recruiting class is regarded as No. 1 in college wrestling. It certainly could be the largest, with more newcomers than I can count. I count at least eight members of their 2009 class.
According to Wrestling Insider News magazine, the Gophers' class is tops. Iowa is eighth-best.
Clearly, Robinson recruited excellently. Clearly, he had a lot more spots to offer this year than Iowa. What does it mean? It means Big Ten wrestling is competitive.
But it's funny to see Brewster making so much about recruiting. He's doing it with football, too, if you check his Tweets. Usually, coaches keep their thoughts about recruiting out of the public sector.
More from Play4brew:
Great job by Gophers baseball! Good luck in the NCAA tourney! Coaches back out recruiting Tuesday! They have been relentless! Go Gophers!
Our Coaches go back on the road this week spreading "Gopher Love"!!
Spring recruiting is going great! Minnesota kids staying home is happening!! You got to love homegrown Gophers!!
Just two months until Brewster speaks to the media at the Big Ten's football kickoff press conference. I can't wait!!!!
