WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- It’s kind of funny how athletes at WSSU are afraid to say something to me that might come back to haunt them.For instance, it’s hard to get a football player to brag about the accomplishments of coming out of nowhere to win the CIAA title. But when it comes to Twitter those shy athletes become bolder and bolder in their proclamations.
Take Will Johnson, the All-CIAA punter/kicker who made the game-winning field goal in the title game against Bowie State on the last play of the game. I’ve known Johnson for three years now and he’s polite during interviews and isn’t about to say anything that might end up as bulletin board material.
Soon after the CIAA volleyball team won its first conference title in that sport on Sunday Johnson couldn’t help himself. On Twitter he proclaimed that WSSU runs the CIAA.
