RE: Am I Overreacting?
This is overreacting. They are not a rival, we don't play them in any important sport. He tweeted about NIU Football ALL THE FREAKING TIME!!!!!! The man is loyal to NIU! I would kind of be pissed if he didn't care about the place he attended college and played. When an NIU game is on at Fatty's it isn't always the only game on, maybe he wanted the Illinois game changed to MSU. You guys are overreacting. Wow.

Phil Burnett used to tweet about and cheer for NIU when he was coaching at Ball State. Same conference, same division, and trophy rivals. Nothing wrong with supporting a few other teams, especially where there are still roots and players you recruited there. If we were playing MSU and he tweeted that he was upset about them losing to us, then you would have a good reason to be angry.

And again, he went there, played there, and coach there for 10 years. This is beyond overreaction.

What if PJ Tweeted congrats after we won the MACC would that be wrong?

Complete overreaction. That's his school, and players he coached, and guys he coached with. Loyalty is a good trait to have.

I think that this is very unprofessional and will kill Monty's career if he keeps this up. If you have other loyalties you should keep them private. NIU should not tolerate this and no other major BCS program would. Could you imagine Urban Meyer going to an Ohio State Bar and demanding that they change the channel from a Buckeye's basketball game to a University of Cincinnati basketball game? Regardless that he is a loyal Cincinnati alumnus and played football there, he would be toast!
