Before Twitter, it was difficult to talk to student athletes unless you knew them personally or were a member of the media.
Now everyone can get insight into their favorite athlete’s lives by following their Twitter accounts. Here are five LSU athletes whose Twitter accounts are simply exceptional:
1. Tyrann Mathieu, @TM7_Era Everyone’s favorite Honey Badger tweets his mind several times a day, whether it’s disproving all the haters, showing off his swagger or smack-talking Alabama’s AJ McCarron months before the November rematch. Lately, his tweets consist of life messages to everyone from the youth to ballers. Mathieu’s Twitter never fails to entertain. Prime Example: “PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: YOU CANNOT AND WILL NOT FIND YOUR WIFEY THRU TWITTER! #STOPIT”
2. Kevin Gausman, @KevinGausman Gausman’s tweets are like his fastballs – they hit the spot. The former LSU pitcher tweets about everything from baseball workouts to Sonic Happy Hour, and they all have a certain sweetness to them, much like Gausman’s beloved powdered donuts. In fact, he clearly has a big sweet tooth judging by all the tweets about sweets. With his major league move to the Baltimore Orioles decided, his tweets will surely improve. Prime Example: “How does Dairy Queen get the swirl on the ice cream cone perfect every time!? #greatexampleofAncientAliens #
